Answer:
The mass of a sample of iron that has had 300 J applied to it and heats up from 20 degrees Celsius to 40 degrees Celsius is 32.61 grams.
Explanation:
Calorimetry is the measurement and calculation of the measurement of heat changes exchanged by a body or a system produced in physical and chemical processes.
The sensible heat of a body is the amount of heat received or transferred by a body to produce a change in temperature but without a change in physical state.
The sensible heat in a constant pressure is calculated by:
Q = c * m * ΔT
where Q is the heat exchanged by a body of mass m, constituted by a substance of specific heat c, and where ΔT is the temperature variation (ΔT=Tfinal - Tinitial)
In this case:
- Q= 300 J
- c= 0.46
- m= ?
- Tfinal= 40 C
- Tinitial= 20 C
Replacing:
300 J= 0.46 * m* (40 - 20) C
Solving:
300 J= 0.46 * m* 20 C
m= 32.61 g
