Question

The specific heat of a certain type of metal is 0.128 j/(g·°c). what is the final temperature if 305 j of heat is added to 57.7 g of this metal initially at 20.0 °c?

Answer 1

The specific heat of a certain type of metal is 0.128 j/(g·°c). what

is the final temperature if 305 j of heat is added to 57.7 g of this metal initially at 20.0 °c?

------------------------------------

heat = massxsp ht cap x temp change

305=57.7x0.128(final temp - 20.0)

305/57.7x0.128+20 = final temp
