Question

A substance has a specific heat of 0.870 j/g°c. it requires 2,000.0 joules to increase the temperature of 10.0 grams of the substance from its original temperature to its final temperature. by how many degrees did the substance increase? a. 87.0°c b. 174°c c. 230°c d. 1,740°c

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

2000 J = .870 J/(g C) * 10 g * d where d is the degree change

2000/ (.870 *10) = d = ~230 C
