To calculate the amount of heat absorbed by the glass, we can use the formula:
Q = mcΔT
where Q is the heat absorbed, m is the mass of the glass, c is the specific heat capacity, and ΔT is the change in temperature.
Given:
m = 905 grams
c = 0.67 J/g°C
ΔT = (65.5°C - 23.5°C) = 42°C
Substituting the values into the formula:
Q = (905 grams) * (0.67 J/g°C) * (42°C)
Calculating the product:
Q = 26066.35 J
Therefore, the glass absorbed approximately 26066.35 Joules of heat.
In the first box, the calculated number is 26066.35. In the second box, the unit is Joules (J).
