We have that energy=specific heat * change in temperature * mass. Thus, we have the final temperature (22) minus the initial temperature (55) to equal -33 as our change in temperature. Our specific heat is in J/g*C, so we're good with that because g stands for grams and the aluminium is measured in grams. As there are 10 grams of aluminum, we have
$10*(-33)*0.902=-298 ish$ as our final temperature

An exothermic reaction would release energy and would therefore lose heat itself, while an endothermic reaction would absorb energy and gain heat. Therefore, losing heat would be an exothermic reaction

A piece of wood near a fire is at 23°c. it gains 1,160 joules of heat from the fire and reaches a temperature of 42°c. the speci

Alex73 [517]

The mass of the piece of wood is 35.58 g.

Joule = M × T × C

Where, M = mass

T = change in temperature(42C-23C=19 C)

C = specific heat capacity = 1.716 joules/gram

Substituting the values in the equation,

1160 = M × 19 × 1.716

M = 1160/32.604 = 35.58 g

Therefore, the mass of the piece of wood = 35.58 g

<h3>What is meant by specific heat capacity?</h3>

A material's specific heat capacity, which is defined as its heat capacity divided by its mass, determines how much energy is required to increase a gram's temperature by one degree Celsius (or one Kelvin)

Mass is the quantity of matter in a physical body.
