How much heat is absorbed by a 28g iron skillet when its temperature rises from 10oC to 27oC?
_____ ___
Answer units

Respuesta :

Amount of heat absorbed: 214 J

Explanation:

When an object absorbs heat, its temperature increases according to the equation

[tex]Q=mC\Delta T[/tex]

where

Q is the heat absorbed

m is the mass of the object

C is the specific heat capacity of the material

[tex]\Delta T[/tex] is the change in temperature

For the iron skillet in this problem:

m = 28 g = 0.028 kg is the mass

[tex]C=450 J/kg^{\circ}C[/tex] is the iron specific heat capacity

[tex]\Delta T = 27-10=17^{\circ}C[/tex] is the increase in temperature

Solving for Q, we find the amount of heat absorbed:

[tex]Q=(0.028)(450)(17)=214 J[/tex]
