294 joules of heat is transferred to a 10.0 gram sample of silver at 25.0º C. What is the final temperature of the silver? The specific heat capacity of silver is 0.24 J/g∙°C.

The final temperature of the silver is 147.5°C.

Explanation:

Given,

mass = 10 gram

T₁ = 25°C

Cp = 0.24 J/g∙°C for silver.

Q = 294 Joules.

Final temperature = ?

The final temperature can be found by using the formula,

Q = (mass) (ΔT) (Cp)

Where, ΔT = T₂ - T₁  

Here, T₂ is the final temperature.

Substituting the values,

294 = (10)( T₂ - T₁)( 0.24)

By solving, we get T₂ = 147.5°C.

Therefore, The final temperature of the silver is 147.5°C.
