Copper has a heat capacity of 0.386 J/g °C. If 15 g of copper has a temperature of 180 °C and it is added to a glass of water causing the temperature to decrease to 80°C. What is the amount of heat released by the metal?

A.)-1042J
B.)-579 J
C.) 579 J
D.)1042J

definition

                    entropy is a measure of the randomness or the extent of disorder of a chemical process.

                      enthalpy is a measure of the heat change of a reaction occurring at a constant pressure.

measurement units:

                        entropy is measured in joule per kelvin (jk⁻¹)   whereas enthalpy is measured in joule per mole (jmol⁻¹)

requirements:

                            entropy has no requirements or limits, and its change is measured by the division between the heat change of the chemical process and the temperature.

                              in contrast, enthalpy can only be related to the heat change of the reaction under standard conditions.
