Q: A 250 g sample of iron ($$Fe) is $$heated from $$37\ ^\circ C to$$ $$75\ ^\circ C. If $$the specific heat capacity of iron is $$0.45\ \mathrm{J/g\ ^\circ C}$$, how much heat ($$q) is $$absorbed by the iron?

$$q = 250 \times 0.45 \times (75 - 37) = 4,275\ \mathrm{J}$$

Question 1

Which of the following statements best describes an endothermic reaction?

Accepted Answer

It absorbs heat from the surroundings, resulting in a temperature decrease.

Question 2

A 250 g sample of iron ($$Fe) is $$heated from $$37\ ^\circ C to$$ $$75\ ^\circ C. If $$the specific heat capacity of iron is $$0.45\ \mathrm{J/g\ ^\circ C}$$, how much heat ($$q) is $$absorbed by the iron?

Accepted Answer

$$q = 250 	imes 0.45 	imes (75 - 37) = 4,275\ \mathrm{J}$$
