Question

how much heat energy is needed to raise the temperature of 78.4g of aluminum from 19.4 degrees c to 98.6 degrees c.

Answer 1

 The heat that is needed  to raise the   temperature  of 78.4 g of aluminium from 19.4 °c to 98.6°c  is    5600.77 j

 calculation

Heat(Q) = mass(M) x  specific heat capacity (C) x change in temperature(ΔT)

where;

Q=?

M = 78. 4 g

C=0.902 j/g/c

ΔT=98.6°c -19.4°c =79.2°c

Q is therefore = 78.4 g  x 0.902 j/g/c  x 79.2°c  =5600.77 j
