Answer:

q = 202.5 joules

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of energy absorbed as one heat 75 grams of iron from 295 k to 301 k can be computed below

q = mcΔt

where

q = energy

m = mass

c = specific heat capacity

Δt = change in temperature

Δt = final temperature - initial temperature

Δt = 301 - 295 = 6 k

c = 0.45 J/g K

q = 75 g × 0.45 J/g K × 6 K

g cancels g and k cancels k we are left with the unit in joules

q = 202.5 joules

Answer:


Q=202.5J

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello,

In this case, the increase in the temperature involves the addition of heat that is defined in terms of mass, heat capacity and temperature:


Q=mCp(T_2-T_1)

In this case, the heat capacity of iron is 0.450 J/(g*K), thus the heat results:


Q=75g*0.450(J)/(g*K)*(301-295)K\\\\Q=202.5J

In such a way, since the temperature is increased heat is added, that is why it is positive.

Best regards.
