Remembering the equation Q=MCdeltaT where
q=is the amount of heat energy
M=mass
C=specific heat
deltaT= change in temperature
Therefore, using the equation we can substitute values and solve for q.
Q= (15 grams) (0.129 J/(gx°C))(85-22)
Q=(15) ((0.129 J/(gx°C)) (63)
Q=121.9 Joules
The energy needed to raise the temperature of 15 grams of gold from 22 degrees Celsius to 85 degrees Celsius is then 121.9 Joules or 122 Joules (if rounded up).
It's the law! Matter cannot be created or destroyed in chemical reactions. This is the law of conservation of mass. In every chemical reaction, the same mass of matter must end up in the products as started in the reactants.
Answer:
Explanation:
The contact between the sheet of gold and the sheet of iron allows a heat transfer until thermal equilibrium is done, which means that both sheets have the same temperature:
The final temperature is:
Answer:
A particle
Explanation:
Modern quantum theory holds that light has both wave-like and particle-like properties. When the length scales involved are large compared to the wavelengths of light (ex., forming images with thin lenses), the
particle nature of light dominates.
