If 125 cal of heat is applied to a 60.0-g piece of copper at 25.0 ?C , what will the final temperature be? The specific heat of copper is 0.0920 cal/(g??C) .

Respuesta :

Amount of heat = mass x specific heat x change in temperature

125 = 60.0 x 0.0920 x Dt

So Dt = 125 / 5.52

= 22.65

Final temperature = 24 + 22.65 = 46.65 degree C

hope that help

have a great day!

The final temperature will be "47.65°C"

Given values are:

  • Heat, Q = 125 cal
  • Mass, m = 60 g
  • Specific heat, S = 0.0920 cal/g
  • Temperature, T = (t-25)

As we know,

The amount of heat supplied is:

→ [tex]Q = mSdT[/tex]

By substituting the values, we get

→ [tex]125=60\times 0.0920\times (t-25)[/tex]

→ [tex]125=5.52\times (t-25)[/tex]

→ [tex]\frac{125}{5.52} = t-25[/tex]

→ [tex]22.65=t-25[/tex]

→        [tex]t = 22.65+25[/tex]

→           [tex]=47.65^{\circ} C[/tex] (Final temperature)

Thus the above is the right answer.
