\The specific heat of aluminum is 0.21 cal g°C . How much heat is released when a 10 gram piece of aluminum foil is taken out of the oven and cools from 50 to 10 °C?

Respuesta :

Answer: The amount of heat released is 84 calories.

Explanation:

The equation used to calculate the amount of heat released or absorbed, we use the equation:

[tex]Q= m\times c\times \Delta T[/tex]

where,

Q = heat gained  or released = ? Cal

m = mass of the substance = 10g

c = specific heat of aluminium = 0.21 Cal/g ° C

Putting values in above equation, we get:

[tex]\Delta T={\text{Change in temperature}}=(10-50)^oC=-40^oC[/tex]  

[tex]Q=10g\times 0.21Cal/g^oC\times-40^oC[/tex]

Q = -84 Calories

Hence, the amount of heat released is 84 calories.

Answer:

-84 c
