Find the final temperature of 375 grams of tea (c = 4.184 J/g°C) if its initial temperature is 95°C just before it is placed in the refrigerator and loses 137,460 Joules of energy.

the final temperature of the tea is 7.39⁰C.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the tea, m = 375 g

specific heat capacity of the tea, C = 4.184 JJ/g°C

initial temperature of the tea, t₁ = 95°C

the final temperature of the tea, t₂ = ?

Energy lost by the refrigerator, Q = 137,460 J

The energy lost by the refrigerator is given by the following formula;

-Q = mc(t₂ - t₁)

-137,460 =375 x 4.184(t₂ - 95°C)

-137,460 = 1569(t₂ - 95°C)

Therefore, the final temperature of the tea is 7.39⁰C.

in order to follow the instructions and complete the statements, i need to use data from table c of your student guide. can you think of a way to let me see your student guide for a while ? i can't answer the question without the data in table c.
