Answer 2

The formula to figure this out is:
Gain or loss of heat in calories= the mass in grams x specific heat in cal/g°C x the change in temperature.
So when the numbers are plugged in, it looks like this: (50 g) (.06 cal/g°C) (1 cal).
Multiply the numbers, and your answer is 3 calories. I hope it helps you out!
