Question

Calculate the heat required, in calories, to raise

Answer 1

Answer:$Q=4450.74\ J$

Explanation:

Given

mass of tin $m=100 gm$

Also we know that

specific heat of tin $c_{tin}=0.21 J/gm-^{\circ}C$

Melting Point of Tin $T=231.94^{\circ}C$

Heat required to raise the temperature of 100 gm tin is given by

$Q=mc\Delta T$

where $Q=heat\ added$

$c=specific\ heat\ of\ tin$

$\Delta T=change\ in\ temperature$

$Q=100\times 0.21\times (231.94-20)$

$Q=4450.74\ J$
