A copper coin with a mass of 6.30 grams changes temperature in the sunshine from 20.0°C to 32.0°C. How much energy is transferred? The specific heat capacity of copper is 0.377 joules/gram degree Celsius. Express your answer to three significant figures.

number of molecules / avogadro's number * molecule molecular = mass

explanation:

we define a gram-molecular weight as the mass of one mole of any element or compound. a mole contains avogadro's number of units (molecules) –  

6.022

x

10

23

. so, dividing the number of molecules by avogadro's number gives us the number of moles. multiplying that by the molecular weight gives us the mass. from the periodic table we find the gram-molecular weight of u to be238 and of f to be19. so,  

u

f

6

will have a gram-molecular weight of 352g.
