Use E=mc*change in T

OpenStudy (anonymous):

in my class its Q=mcT so u mean find Q rigt?

OpenStudy (wolfe8):

Yerp

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

250*45*4.19

OpenStudy (anonymous):

right??

OpenStudy (wolfe8):

4.19 is the specific heat in J/gC so be sure to change your mass to grams. And what are the 45 and 250? O.o

OpenStudy (anonymous):

250 g of caol and 45 the tempertaiure when u take the final temp- intial temp

OpenStudy (wolfe8):

O.o

OpenStudy (wolfe8):

Well you have to start over. Here: We will use 4.186 joule/gram °C for the c. Note the unit is in joule, gram, and Celsius, so get the mass of water in grams.
