It takes 2,267 joules of heat to raise the temperature of a 44.5 gram sample of a metal from 33.9°C to 288.3°C. What is the heat capacity of the metal?
Bridger J.
The specific heat capacity of silver is $0.235 \mathrm{J} / \mathrm{g} \cdot \mathrm{K}$. Its melting point is $962^{\circ} \mathrm{C},$ and its heat of fusion is $11.3 \mathrm{kJ} / \mathrm{mol}$ What quantity of heat, in joules, is required to change $5.00 \mathrm{g}$ of silver from a solid at $25^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ to a liquid at $962^{\circ} \mathrm{C} ?$
