To find the specific heat capacity of ethanol, we can use the formula:q = mcTwhere q is the heat absorbed 237 J , m is the mass of the ethanol sample 50.0 g , c is the specific heat capacity we want to find, and T is the change in temperature 85.0 C - 25.0 C .First, let's find the change in temperature T :T = 85.0 C - 25.0 C = 60.0 CNow, we can rearrange the formula to solve for the specific heat capacity c :c = q / mT Plug in the values:c = 237 J / 50.0 g 60.0 C c = 237 J / 3000 gCc = 0.079 J/gCThe specific heat capacity of ethanol is 0.079 J/gC.
