Determine the final temperature of sample with a specific heat of 1.1 J/g°C and a mass of 385 g if it starts out at a temperature of 19.5°C and 885 J of energy are added to it.

T2 =21.52°C

Explanation:

Given data:

Specific heat capacity of sample = 1.1 J/g.°C

Mass of sample = 385 g

Initial temperature = 19.5°C

Heat absorbed = 885 J

Solution:

Formula:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = amount of heat absorbed or released

m = mass of given substance

c = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = change in temperature

ΔT = Final temperature - initial temperature

885J = 385 g× 1.1 J/g.°C×(T2 - 19.5°C )

885 J = 423.5 J/°C× (T2 - 19.5°C )

885 J / 423.5 J/°C = (T2 - 19.5°C )

2.02°C = (T2 - 19.5°C )

T2 = 2.02°C + 19.5°C

T2 =21.52°C
