Answer:

296.33K

Explanation:

Data;

Q = 852J

mass (m) = 38.4g

θ₂ = 32.5°C = 305.5K

θ₁ = ?

c = 2.42 J/g.K

From the equation of heat transfer;

Heat transfer (Q) = MC∇θ

Q = mc(θ₂ - θ₁)

852 = 38.4 * 2.42 * ( 305.5 - θ₁ )

852 = 28389.504 - 92.928θ₁

Collect like-terms

92.928θ₁ = 27537.504

Divide both sides by 92.928 to make θ₁ the subject of formula .

θ₁ = 296.33K

A welding torch produces a flame by burning acetylene fuel in the presence of oxygen. the energy released from the acetylene fue
Sveta_85 [38]

A welding torch produces a flame by burning of acetylene fuel then energy released from the acetylene fuel is then used to melt a metal, so transformation of chemical energy into thermal energy takes place.

<h3>What is transfer of energy?</h3>

Energy neither can be produced nor destroyed but it only transfers from one form to other form.

In the question it is given that, burning of acetylene produces energy and this produced energy is a type of chemical energy and then this is used as a thermal energy for the melting of metal.

So conversion of kinetic energy to potential energy, thermal energy to electromagnetic energy and potential energy to chemical is wrong.

Hence transformation of chemical energy into thermal energy takes place.
