Answer: 17.9 joules
Explanation:
The quantity of Heat Energy (Q) required to heat solid silver depends on its Mass (M), specific heat capacity (C) and change in temperature (Φ)
Thus, Q = MCΦ
Given that,
Q = ?
Mass= 3.02g
C = 0.24J/g°C
Φ = (Final temperature - Initial temperature)
= 47°C - 22.3°C = 24.7°C
Then, Q = MCΦ
Q = 3.02g x 0.240J/g°C x 24.7°C
Q = 17.9 Joules
Thus, 17.9 joules of heat isrequired.
