Answer:
46.67 g
Explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Change in temperature (ΔT) = 23.8 °C
Heat (Q) = 261 J
Specific heat capacity (C) of silver = 0.235 J/gºC
Mass of silver (M) =?
The mass of the sample of silver can be obtained as follow:
Q = MCΔT
261 = M × 0.235 × 23.8
261 = M × 5.593
Divide both side by 5.593
M = 261 / 5.593
M = 46.67 g
Thus, the mass of the sample of silver is 46.67 g
