The temperature of 15.71 grams of gold rises from 32°c to 1,064°c, and then the gold melts completely. if gold’s specific heat is 0.1291 joules/gram degree celsius and its heat of fusion is 63.5 joules/gram, how much energy is gained by the gold? the gold gained a total of joules of energy.

Total energy gained by 15.71 g is 3090.6471 joules

Explanation:

Given:

Q = heat gained by the 15.71 gram mass of gold

c = specific heat capacity of gold = 0.1291

m = mass of gold =15.71 g

Heat gained by gold =

=3090.6471 joules

i think it is true since you can test the answer and can use observations to complete it.

answer is: naturally occurring solid, inorganic compound or element is mineral.

minerals usually have crystalline form, that means than crystal constituents (atoms, molecules or ions) are arranged in a highly ordered microscopic structure, forming a crystal lattice that extends in all directions.

for example magnetite is a mineral of iron oxide (fe₂o₃).

calcite is a carbonate mineral and the most stable polymorph of calcium carbonate (caco₃).

dolomite is an   carbonate mineral composed of calcium magnesium carbonate (camg(co₃)₂).
