1) 385 J

2) 450 J

Explanation:

1)

The amount of energy that must be absorbed by a certain substance in order to increase its temperature by \Delta T is given by the equation:

Q=mC\Delta T

where

m is the mass of the substance

C is its specific heat capacity

\Delta T is the increase in temperature of the substance

For the block of copper in this problem, we have:

m = 10 g is the mass

C=0.385 J/gK is the specific heat capacity of copper

\Delta T=400-300 = 100 K is the change in temperature

So, the energy absorbed by the block of copper is

Q=(10)(0.385)(100)=385 J

2)

Similarly for the block of iron, the energy absorbed by the iron is given by

Q=mC\Delta T

where

m is the mass of the block of iron

C is its specific heat capacity of iron

\Delta T is the increase in temperature of the block

Here we have:

m = 10 g is the mass of the block

C=0.450 J/gK is the specific heat capacity of iron

\Delta T=400-300 = 100 K is the change in temperature

So, the energy absorbed by the block of iron is

Q=(10)(0.450)(100)=450 J

Is there such thing as a pure mixture?
prisoha [69]
Pure substances are further broken down into elements and compounds. Mixture are physically combined structures that can be separated into their original components. A chemical substance is composed of one type of atom or molecule.
