Q = mCΔT
ΔT = 29.2 - 20 = 9.2 °C
Q = 120 x 4.184 x 9.2
Q = 4,619.1 Joules
Both strong acid and strong base will alter the solubility and the nature of a protein. This is because, adding a strong acid or base to a protein will drastically change the pH of the protein and this will leads to formation of precipitation and denaturation of the protein.
