The specific heat of copper is 0.385 J/g
°C. How much thermal energy is required
to increase the temperature of a 20g
sample of copper from 20°C to 50°C?
Q = m CAT
A 154 )
B 231 )
C 308 )
D 385 )

Answer :

Answer:

Required energy Q = 231 J

Explanation:

Given:

Specific heat of copper C = 0.385 J/g°C

Mass m = 20 g

ΔT = (50 - 20)°C = 30 °C

Find:

Required energy

Computation:

Q = mCΔT

Q = 20(0.385)(30)

Required energy Q = 231 J
