    Energy Lead
AI Thread Summary
To calculate the energy required to heat 1 kg of lead from 0 Kelvin to a specific temperature, the concept of specific heat capacity is essential. Specific heat capacity is a material property that indicates how much energy is needed to raise the temperature of a substance. For lead, one can refer to its specific heat value to perform the necessary calculations. Additionally, it is important to avoid posting the same question in multiple threads to maintain clarity in discussions. Understanding these principles will help in accurately determining the energy requirement.

can anybody tell me how do I work out how much energy it takes to get an atom of say lead to a given temprature from 0 kelvin

Again, temperature is a statistical property of LARGE number of atoms, not one atom. So your question does not make sense, since "tempretature of an atom" does not make sense.

ok them how do I work out how much energy it takes to get 1 kg of lead to a given temprature from 0 kelvin
 
Can anny body please help me find a formula to work out how much energy it takes to get 1 kg of lead to a given temprature from 0 Kelvin
 
Bruce Hawkins I just saw you posted a thread about the exact same topic.

Are you familiar with the the idea of specific heat? If not, Google for "specific heat".

you have already asked this question in your other thread

@Nugatory already gave you a clue to go look up

but you didn't bother to respond

It is not a good thing to ask the same question in multiple threadsD
