How much will the alcohol rise in temperature

Reference no: EM13547251

Ethyl alcohol has about half the specific heat of water. Assume equal amounts of energy are transferred by heat into equal-mass liquid samples of alcohol and water in separate insulated containers. The water rises in temperature by 20°C. How much will the alcohol rise in temperature?
