Thermal Capacity of Aluminium

Thermal capacity of \(40\text{ g}\) of aluminium of specific heat \(0.2\text{ cal/(g }^\{circ}\text{C)}\) is
\(40\text{ cal/}^\{circ}\text{C}\)
\(160\text{ cal/}^\circ\text{C}\)
\(8\text{ cal/}^\circ\text{C}\)
\(200\text{ cal/}^\circ\text{C}\)

Solution:

Thermal capacity is given by the formula \(C = m \cdot s\). Substituting the values, \(C = 40\text{ g} \times 0.2\text{ cal/(g }^\circ\text{C)} = 8\text{ cal/}^\circ\text{C}\.
