28.5 J is the amount of energy transferred to the coin.
What is specific heat capacity?
The specific heat capacity is defined as the quantity of heat (J) absorbed per unit mass (kg) of the material when its temperature increases by 1 K (or 1 °C), and its units are J/(kg K) or J/(kg °C).
Energy is calculated mCΔT formula where,
m(mass)= 6.30 grams
C(specific heat capacity)= 0.377 j/g
ΔT(change in temperature)= 32.0°C- 20°C= 12 °C
Energy is, therefore:
Q = mCΔT
Q= 6.30 g x 0.377 j/g /°C x 12 °C
Q= 28.5 J
Hence, 28.5 J is the amount of energy transferred to the coin.
