Answer:
19656J
Explanation:
Step 1:
Data obtained from the question.
Mass (M) = 78g
Initial temperature (T1) = 20°C
Final temperature (T2) = 80°C
Change in temperature (ΔT) = T2 – T1 =
80°C – 20°C = 60°C
Specific heat capacity (C) = 4.2J/g°C
Heat (Q) =...?
Step 2:
Determination of the heat required for the reaction.
Q = MCΔT
Q = 78 x 4.2 x 60
Q = 19656J
Therefore, 19656J of heat is required.
