Question

If 125 cal of heat is applied to a 60.0-g piece of copper at 21.0∘C , what will the final temperature be? The specific heat of copper is 0.0920 cal/(g⋅∘C) .
Express the final temperature numerically in degrees Celsius.

Answer 1

use the equation\[Q = m*C* \Delta T\] to find the change in temp. Since you know the starting temp, and what the change is, it's easy to find the final temp
