Calorimetry Question

487 Views Asked by At

If you are familiar with the formula q = (m) * (c) * (Delta Temperature) q = (Delta Heat) m = Mass c = Heat Capacity Delta T = Change in temperature

The question is asking to solve with this info:

The heat capacity is 440 KJ/Degrees Celcius. The energy added is a total of 24480 J and it asks to solve for change in temperature. Any tips?

Q=c*dt

Q=24.48 KJ

C=440KJ

dt=?

24.48=440dt

24.48/440=dt

dt= .05563

Therefore change in temperature is approximately .05563 degrees celsius or kelvin.
