Answer:

[tex]c=0.4\ J/g^{\circ} C[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Mass of a sample, m = 12 g

Heat absobed by the sample, Q = 96 J

It was heated from 20°C to 40°C.

We need to find the specific heat of a material. The heat absorbed by a sample is given by :

[tex]Q=mc\Delta T\\\\c=\dfrac{Q}{m\Delta T}\\\\c=\dfrac{96}{12\times (40-20)}\\\\=0.4\ J/g^{\circ} C[/tex]

So, the specific heat of the material is [tex]0.4\ J/g^{\circ} C[/tex].

The specific heat of the 12-gram material when temperature changes from 20°C to 40°C is 400 joule per kg K.

What is thermodynamics?

It is a branch of science that deals with heat and work transfer.

The specific heat of material if a 12-g sample absorbed 96 J as it was heated from 20°C to 40°C.

The specific heat is given as

[tex]Q = mc \Delta T[/tex]

where

m = mass

c = heat capacity

ΔT = change in temperature

Q = heat

Then we have

[tex]c = \dfrac{Q}{m \Delta T}\\\\c = \dfrac{96}{12\times 10^{-3} \times (40-20)}\\\\c = \dfrac{8\times 10^3}{20}\\\\c = 400\ \ \rm \dfrac{J}{kg \ K}[/tex]
