Question: How much heat, in joules and in calories, must be added to a 75.0鈥揼 iron block with a specific heat of 0.449 J/g 掳C to increase its temperature from 25 掳C to its melting temperature of 1535 掳C?

Short Answer

Expert verified

The heat required to raise the temperature in joules = 50,849 J

The heat required to raise the temperature in calories = 12,147 calories

Step by step solution

01

Step 1: Specific heat

The heat required (Q) to raise the temperature of a substance is given by the formula Q = C 脳 m 脳鈭 T,where 鈥淐鈥 is the specific heat of the substance, 鈥渕鈥 is the mass of the substance, and 鈥溾垎T鈥 is the change in the temperature of the substance.

02

Calculation of heat in Joules

We know from the given details that:

C = 0.449 J/g 掳C

m = 75 g

T = change in temperature =Tfinal - Tinitial = 15350C 鈥 250C = 15100C

By putting the values above in the equation Q = C 脳 m 脳 鈭 T, we get:

Q = 75 脳 0.449 脳 1510 = 50,849 J.

The heat required to raise the temperature of 75 g of iron block = 50,849 J

03

Calculation of heat in calories

Also,

1 calorie = 4.184 J.

The heat required to raise the temperature in calories =\(\frac{{50,849}}{{4.186}} = 12147.39cal\)
