A piece of bismuth with a mass of 4.06 g 4.06 g gains 423 J 423 J of heat. If the specific heat of bismuth is 0.123 J / ( g ° C ) 0.123 J/(g°C) , what is the change in temperature of the sample?

846°C

Explanation:

The quantity of Heat Energy (Q) required to heat bismuth depends on its Mass (M), specific heat capacity (C) and change in temperature (Φ)

Thus, Q = MCΦ

Given that:

Q = 423 joules

Mass of bismuth = 4.06g

C = 0.123 J/(g°C)

Φ = ?

Then, Q = MCΦ

423 J = 4.06g x 0.123 J/(g°C) x Φ

423 J = 0.5J/°C x Φ

Φ = (423J/ 0.5g°C)

Φ = 846°C

Thus, the change in temperature of the sample is 846°C

the results is a decrease in air temperature with an increase of altitude.

explanation:

answer: the metamorphic rocks are formed when they are exposed to high pressure and high temperatures. this happens when one of the earth's plates comes in contact with the other plate by traveling in opposite directions, straight into each other or slipping under one another. the friction that is caused by this activity results in   melting of rocks and when it cools they are known as metamorphic rocks. this process needs a controlled amount of pressure and temperature otherwise it may turn into magma.
