can an answer be 286 degree celsius ?is this possible.
i solve this problem:
what is the temperture change when 8.92g of sodium[ 0.293cal/(g x degree celsius) loses 750 cal of heat energy?
given formula:
heat(cal)
________________
mass(g) x temperature change(degree celsius)

Of course it can. If you boil water under pressure, the temperature exceeds 100 C. If you melt steel, the temperature is in the thousands. If you check the temperature of the surface of the Sun, it is around 6000 C, and so on.
Where would you get the notion that the Celsius scale would stop at 100?

Here is where the 100 cames from.
The celsius scales is defined so it assigns 0 to the temperature where water ice melts and 100 C to the temperature where water boils. 1 C will be 1/100 of the scale.
Temperatures can go above and below these values.
heat = m * C * DeltaT
You have m, c, heat. What is the difficulty in solving for DeltaT?

It is possible. 100 Celsius is just the boiling point of water, not a limit to the temperature scale.

The lowest temp in celsius is -273.16 c which is 0 Kelvin, however the celsius scale in terms of heat know's no ceiling, think of the surface of the sun, that should be a wee bit hotter than the boiling point of water.

Yes, it can be, the melting points of inoinc slats is more than thoushand degree celsius,100 celsius is the poiling point of water no more no less.

100 celcius is boiling point of water at sealevel. So 200 degrees would be about the right temperature to bake a pie.

There is no upper limit on any temperature scale....there is a lower limit though
For celsius it's approx -273.15...Fahrenheit -459.6
These are known as absolute zero.

TRY OUT THIS
loss in temp=mass x specific heat capacity x change in temp.
and definetly answer will be above 100 degrees celcius.

relies upon what the question is. If all human beings is in certainty answering the comparable element, then yeah, its complicated, yet at the same time as which would be a sort of questions that each and every person human beings is answering random humorous stuff that's unique and makes me sense astonishing and significant.

yes it can.....temperature can rise almost 3000 celcius but when it drops....it can only drop till -273 celcius
the temperature of the sun is very high...100 celcius is the boiling point
