Calculate the energy absorbed when 6.20 g of aluminum is heated from 10.0°C to 65.0°C if the specific heat of aluminum is 0 .900 J/g°C

The energy absorbed when 6.20 grams of aluminum is heated from 10.0°C to 65.0°C is 306.9 Joules.

Explanation:

Where:

Q = heat absorbed  or heat lost

c = specific heat of substance

m = Mass of the substance

ΔT = change in temperature of the substance

: Initial and final temperature of the substance

We have mass of aluminium = m = 6.20 g

Specific heat of aluminium= c = 0.900 J/g°C

Initial and final temperature of the aluminium

Final temperature of the aluminium =

Heat absorbed by the aluminium:

The energy absorbed when 6.20 grams of aluminum is heated from 10.0°C to 65.0°C is 306.9 Joules.
