When 1564 J of heat energy is added to a sample of gold at 25.0°C, the temperature of the gold increases to 449°C. what is the means of the gold sample? (specific heat of gold= 0.129 J/g-°C

The mass of the gold sample is 28.59 g

Explanation:

Calorimetry is the measurement and calculation of the amounts of heat exchanged by a body or a system. The amount of heat received or transferred by a body when it undergoes a temperature variation (Δt) without changing its physical state (solid, liquid or gaseous) is calculated by:

Q = c * m * ΔT

Where Q is the heat exchanged by a body of mass m, made up of a specific heat substance c and where ΔT is the temperature variation.

In this case:

Replacing:

Solving:

m=28.59 g

The mass of the gold sample is 28.59 g

the tides are influenced by both the moon and the sun, it's easy to see that when the sun lines up with the moon and the earth, as during a new moon or full moon, the tidal effect is increased. these are known as spring tides, named not for the season, but for the fact that the water "springs" higher than normal. on the other hand, if the sun and the moon are 90 degrees apart in relation to an observer on earth as during the first quarter moon or third quarter moon, then high tides are not as high as they normally would be. this is because despite its greater distance, the sun's mass allows it to exert enough gravitational force on the oceans that it can negate some of the effects of the moon's pull. this phenomenon of lower high tides is called a neap tide. if you need more information on this topic visit moonconnection.com.
