Question

How much heat is absorbed by a 61g iron skillet when its temperature rises from 5oC to 29oC?

Answer 1

Heat energy absorbed by iron skillet=659 J

Step-by-step explanation:

mass= 61 g

change in temperature=ΔT=29-5=24°C

specific heat of iron =0.450 J/g °C

the formula for heat is given by

Q= m C ΔT

Q=61 (0.450) (24)

Q=659 J
