The specific heat capacity of a metal is 160 JKg^{-1}K^{-1}. Calculate the amount of heat energy required to raise the temperature of 500\ gram of the metal from 125\ °C to 325\ °C.
 
From the given data,
 
Temperature of metal before energy supply (T1) = 125\ °C
 
Temperature of metal after energy supply (T2) = 325\ °C
 
Mass (m) = 500\ gram =  Kg
 
Specific heat Capacity (\C\)) = 160 JKg^{-1}K^{-1}
 
We know that,
 
Specific heat capacity is,
 
 
Formula to calculate Heat transfer (Q) is,
 
 
Substitute the values,
 
Amount of heat energy required =
