Given that iron has a specific heat capacity of 0.4490J/gºC, calculate the amount of heat (J) to raise thetemperature of a 500.0 g iron skillet of 24.00°C.

Respuesta :

To answer this question we have to use the following equation:

[tex]Q=Cp\cdot m\cdot\Delta T[/tex]

Where Q is the heat applied or released, Cp is the specific heat capacity, m is the mass and ΔT is the difference in temperature. Replace for the given values to find Q:

[tex]\begin{gathered} Q=0.449J/g\degree C\cdot500.0g\cdot24.00\degree C \\ Q=5388J \end{gathered}[/tex]

It means that to raise the iron skillet temperature of 24.00°C, 5388J have to be applied.
