5. How much heat is needed to warm .052 kg of gold from 30°C to 120°C? Note: Gold has a specific heat of 136

J/kg °C

Respuesta :

Answer:

Q = 636.48 J

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of gold, m = 0.052 kg

The temperature increase from 30°C to 120°C.

The specific heat of gold is 136  J/kg °C.

We need to find the heat needed to warm the gold. The formula for heat needed is given by :

[tex]Q=mc\Delta T\\\\Q=0.052\times 136\times (120-30)\\\\Q=636.48\ J[/tex]

So, 636.48 J of heat is needed to warm gold.
