322.5 joules
To find out how much heat is required to raise the temperature of a substance, you can use the formula:
Q = mcΔT
Where:
Q represents the heat energy
m is the mass of the substance
c is the specific heat capacity of the substance
ΔT is the change in temperature
In this case, you want to find out how much heat (Q) is needed to raise the temperature of 0.10 kg of gold by 25°C.
Now, you need to find the specific heat capacity (c) for gold. The specific heat capacity is the amount of heat energy required to raise the temperature of one unit of mass (in this case, one kilogram) of a substance by one degree Celsius.
For gold, the specific heat capacity is approximately 129 J/(kg°C).
Now, we can substitute these values into the formula:
Q = (0.10 kg) * (129 J/(kg°C)) * (25°C)
By multiplying these values, we get:
Q ≈ 322.5 J
Therefore, it would take approximately 322.5 Joules of heat energy to raise the temperature of 0.10 kg of gold by 25°C.
