On a hot day, a 15.0 kg window increased from 20.0 degrees C to 26.7 degrees C. How much heat energy did the glass window absorb? (specific heat of glass = 0.840 J/gC)

The heat energy absorbed by glass window is 84420 J.

Explanation:

Given: Mass = 15 kg (1 kg = 1000 g) = 15000 g

Initial temperature =

Final temperature =

Specific heat capacity =

Formula used is as follows.

where,

q = heat energy

m = mass of substance

C = specific heat capacity

= initial temperature

= final temperature

Substitute the values into above formula as follows.

Thus, we can conclude that the heat energy absorbed by glass window is 84420 J.
