A flow calorimeter is a device used to measure the specific heat of a liquid. Energy is added as heat at a known rate to a stream of the liquid as it passes through the calorimeter at a known rate. Measurement of the resulting temperature difference between the inflow and the outflow points of the liquid stream enables us to compute the specific heat of the liquid. Suppose a liquid of density 0.86 g/cm³ flows through a calorimeter at the rate of 8.1 cm³/s. When energy is added at the rate of 200 W by means of an electric heating coil, a temperature difference of 18°C is established in steady-state conditions between the inflow and the outflow points. What is the specific heat of the liquid? Number Units
