Answer:

Q = - 8501.99 j

Explanation:

Given data:

Specific heat of Al = 0.902 j/g.°C

Heat lost = ?

Mass of sample = 23.984 g

Initial temperature = 415°C

Final temperature = 22°C

Solution:

Specific heat capacity:

It is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one gram of substance by one degree.

Formula:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = amount of heat absorbed or released

m = mass of given substance

c = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = change in temperature

ΔT = 22°C - 415°C

ΔT = -393°C

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = 23.984 g× 0.902 j/g.°C × -393°C

Q = - 8501.99 j

The quantity of heat lost when the piece of aluminum cools from 415°C to 22°C is -8501.99 Joules.

Given the following data:

  • Specific heat capacity of Aluminum = 0.902 J/g°C.
  • Mass of aluminum = 23.984 grams
  • Initial temperature = 415°C
  • Final temperature = 22°C

To find how much heat is lost when the piece of aluminum cools:

Mathematically, heat capacity or quantity of heat is given by the formula;

[tex]Q = mc\theta[/tex]

Where:

Q represents the heat capacity or quantity of heat.

m represents the mass of an object.

c represents the specific heat capacity.

∅ represents the change in temperature.

[tex]\theta = T_2 - T_1\\\\\theta = 22 - 415\\\\\theta = -393[/tex]

Substituting the values into the formula, we have:

[tex]Q = 23.984(0.902)(393)[/tex]

Q = -8501.99 Joules.
