Question

How much heat is absorbed by a 51g iron skillet when it's temperature rises from 14°C to 25°C?

Answer 1

Heat energy absorbed by iron skillet=252.5 J

Step-by-step explanation:

mass= 51 g

change in temperature=ΔT=25-14=11°C

specific heat of iron =0.450 J/g °C

the formula for heat is given by

Q= m C ΔT

Q=51 (0.450) (11)

Q=252.5 J

Thus heat energy absorbed=252.5 J
