(choose chapter or problem)

The specific heat of most solids is nearly constant over a wide temperature range. Not so for diamond. Between 200 K and 600 K, the specific heat of diamond is reasonably well described by c = 2.8T - 350 J/kgK, where T is in K. For gemstone diamonds, 1 carat = 200 mg. How much heat energy is needed to raise the temperature of a 3.5 carat diamond from -50C to 250C?
