How many joules of heat energy are needed to raise the temperature of 10.0 g (0.0100 kg) of aluminum from 22 K to 55 K, if the specific heat of aluminum is 897 J/kg * K. Explain your answer

Respuesta :

Answer:

296.01 J

Explanation:

From the question,

Q = cm(t₂-t₁)....................... Equation 1

Where Q = quantity of heat, c = specific heat capacity of aluminium, m = mass of aluminium, t₁ = Initial temperature, t₂ = Final temperature

Given: c = 897 J/kg.K, m = 0.01 kg, t₁ = 22 K, t₂ = 55 k

Substitute these values into equation 1

Q = 897×0.01×(55-22)

Q = 897×0.01×33

Q = 296.01 J

Hence 296.01 Joules of heat is required.
