Question

The specific heat of aluminum is 0.89 J/g°C. How much energy is required to raise the temperature of a 15.0 g aluminum can 18°C?

Answer 1

Answer: Q = 240.3 J

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

m (mass of the aluminum can) = 15.0 g

c (specific heat capacity of aluminum) = 0.89 J/g°C

ΔT (change in temperature) = 18°C

Now, plug these values into the formula:

Q = 15.0 g * 0.89 J/g°C * 18°C

Q = 15.0 g * 0.89 J/g°C * 18°C
