Answer:Total energy gained by 15.71 g is 3090.6471 joules

Explanation:

Given:

Q = heat gained by the 15.71 gram mass of gold

Q=mc\Delta T +m\Delta H_{fusion}

\Delta T=(T_{final}-T_{initial})=(1064^oC-32^oC)=1032^oC

c = specific heat capacity of gold = 0.1291joules/gram^oC

m = mass of gold =15.71 g

Q=15.71 g\times 0.1291 joules/gram^oC (1032^oC) +15.71 g\times 63.5 Joules/gram

Heat gained by gold = 2093.0621 Joules + 997.585 Joules

=3090.6471 joules
