Answer:
ºC
Explanation:
We have to start with the variables of the problem:
Mass of water = 60 g
Mass of gold = 13.5 g
Initial temperature of water= 19 ºC
Final temperature of water= 20 ºC
<u>Initial temperature of gold= Unknow</u>
Final temperature of gold= 20 ºC
Specific heat of gold = 0.13J/gºC
Specific heat of water = 4.186 J/g°C
Now if we remember the <u>heat equation</u>:
We can relate these equations if we take into account that <u>all heat of gold is transfer to the water</u>, so:
Now we can <u>put the values into the equation</u>:
Now we can <u>solve for the initial temperature of gold</u>, so:
ºC
I hope it helps!
