Answer:
0.00471 grams H₂O
Explanation:
To determine the mass, you need to use the following equation:
Q = mcΔT
In this equation,
-----> Q = energy/heat (J)
-----> m = mass (g)
-----> c = specific heat capacity (J/g°C)
-----> ΔT = temperature change (°C)
The specific heat capacity of water is 4182 J/g°C. You can plug the given values into the equation and simplify to isolate "c".
Q = 0.709 J c = 4182 J/g°C
m = ? g ΔT = 0.036 °C
Q = mcΔT <----- Equation
0.709 J = m(4182 J/g°C)(0.036 °C) <----- Insert values
0.709 J = m(150.552) <----- Multiply 4182 and 0.036
0.00471 = m <----- Divide both sides by 150.552
