A gold bar weighing 33.5g and having an initial temperature of 25.0 Celsius, absorbs 5,000J of heat. What would be the new temperature of the metal bar?
q = mass Au x specific heat Au x (Tfinal-Tinitial)
q = 5000 J.
mass Au = 33.5 g
specific heat Au = ?
Tfinal = ?
Tinitial = 25 C.
I don't know the specific heat Au. You need to look it up in your text or on Google.
