Question

what is the delta H of 30 g of gold heating from 300 K to 500 K c = 0.1 

Expert Solution
Step 1

It is given that 30 g of gold is heated from a temperature of 300 K to 500 K and the specific heat capacity for gold is given as, 0.1 J/g°C,

Step 2

To calculate the heat in the process,

q = mCgoldT= 30 g × 0.1 J/g°C (226.85°C-26.85°C) = 600 J= 0.6 kJ
