2.2.2 Specific heat capacity
1 Know that an increase in the temperature of an object increases its internal energy
2 Describe an increase in temperature of an object in terms of an increase in the average kinetic energies of
all of the particles in the object
3 Define specific heat capacity as the energy required per unit mass per unit temperature increase; recall and
use the equation
specific heat capacity = change in energy
mass × change in temperature
c = ∆E
m∆θ
4 Describe experiments to measure the specific heat capacity of a solid and of a liquid
