If the mass of a sample of Mg is 0.500 g and is placed in 100.0 g of HCl, the heat gained is 546.5 J. What is the change in temperature assuming the specific heat of HCl is 4.017 J/K*g?

1.36 K

Explanation:

We have the following data:

The heat gained by HCl is calculated as:

heat = m x Sh x ΔT

where m is the mass of HCl (100.0 g), Sh is the specific heat of HCl (4.017 J/K.g) and ΔT is the change in temperature. We introduce the data in the mathematical expression to calculate ΔT as follows:

ΔT = heat/(m x Sh) = 546.5 J/(100.0 g x 4.017 J/K.g) = 1.36 K

Therefore, the change in temperature is 1.36 K.
