6. The temperature of a mass of tin increases from 24.0 degrees C to 34.0 degrees C when 250 J of thermal energy are added. Calculate the mass of the tin. The theoretical specific heat capacity of tin is 0.228 J/g degrees C.

Answer:

110 g

Explanation:

q = mCΔT

where q is heat, m is mass, C is specific heat capacity, and ΔT is change in temperature.

Given q = 250 J, C = 0.228 J/g/°C, and ΔT = 10.0 °C:

250 J = m (0.228 J/g/°C) (10.0 °C)

m = 110 g
