The specific heat capacity of methane gas is 2.20 J/g ∙ K.How many joules of heat are needed to raise the temperature of 5.00 g of methane from 36.0°C to 75.0°C?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The heat required can be calculated using the formula: q = m * c * ΔT, where m = 5.00 g, c = 2.20 J/g∙K, and ΔT = 75.0°C - 36.0°C = 39.0°C. Substituting these values gives q = 5.00 g * 2.20 J/g∙K * 39.0 K = 429 J.
