Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 121.905 \ J  }}

Explanation:

We are asked to find the energy given mass, specific heat, and change in temperature. Therefore, we must use this formula;

q= mc \Delta T

The mass is 15 grams and the specific heat is 0.129 J/(g×°C). Let's calculate the change in temperature.

  • ΔT= final temperature - initial temperature
  • ΔT= 85 °C- 22°C = 63°C

Now we know all the values:

m= 15 \ g \ \\c= 0.129 \ J / (g* \textdegree C) \\\Delta T= 63 \ \textdegree C

Substitue the values into the formula.

q= (15 \ g)( 0.129 \ J / (g* \textdegree C)) ( 63 \ \textdegree C)

Multiply the first numbers together. The grams will cancel.

q= (1.935 \ J/ \textdegree C) ( 63 \ \textdegree C)

Multiply again, this time the degrees Celsius cancels.

q= 121.905 \ J

<u>121.905 Joules</u> are required.
