Copper has a specific heat of 0.385 j. A piece of copper absorbs 5000 J of energy and undergoes a temperature change from 100 Celsius to 200 degrees Celsius. What is the mass of the piece of copper?

Respuesta :

energy= mcT
5000 = m• 0.385 • (200-100)
m = 130kg

The mass of the piece of copper will be 130 kg. In the International System of Units (SI), the kilogram is the unit of mass.

What is mass?

Mass is a numerical measure of inertia, which is a basic feature of all matter. It is, in effect, a body of matter's resistance to a change in speed or position caused by the application of a force.

The energy absorbed as;

[tex]\rm \triangle E = mC \triangle t \\\\ m = \frac{\triangle E }{mC} \\\\ m = \frac{5000 }{0.385 (200-100)} \\\\ m=130 \ kg[/tex]

Hence, the mass of the piece of copper will be 130 kg.
