When an automobile engine starts, the metal parts immediately begin to absorb heat released during the combustion of gasoline. How much heat will be absorbed by a 165 kg iron engine block as the temperature rises from 15.7°C to 95.7°C? (The specific heat of iron is 0.489 J/g·°C.)

H = 4,034,250 J

Explanation:

Mass, m = 165kg = 165,000g (Converting to grams)

Initial temperature = 15.7°C

Final temperature = 95.7°C

Temperature change, ΔT = 95.7 - 15.7 = 50°C

Specific heat capacity, c = 0.489 J/g·°C

Heat = ?

All the parameters are related with the equation below;

H = m * c * ΔT

H = 165000 * 0.489  * 50

H = 4,034,250 J

the right answer is c i just did the question.
