The liquidwhich would cool faster.
Answer to Problem 64A
Methanol
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
Thermal energy can be obtained by:
Where, m is the mass, c is the specific heat capacity and
Specific heat refers to the amount of energy required to raise the temperature of unit mass by one unit of temperature.
Specific heat capacity of water is,
Specific heat capacity of methanol,
As the specific heat capacity of methanol is lower than that of water, methanol will cool faster than water.
