A 40.0 kg block of lead is heated from -25°C to 200°C. How much heat is absorbed by the lead block?

A. 2,354,000 J
B. 1,170,000 J
C. 56,891 J
D. 10,650 J

B. 1,170,000 J

Explanation:

Given;

mass of lead block, m = 40 kg

initial temperature, t₁ = -25 ⁰C

final temperature, t₂ = 200 ⁰C

The heat absorbed the lead block is calculated as;

H = mcΔt

where;

c is the specific heat capacity of lead =  130 J/kg⁰C

H = 40 x 130 x (200 - (-25))

H = 40 x 130 x (200 + 25)

H = 40 x 130 x 225

H = 1,170,000 J

Therefore, the heat absorbed the lead block is 1,170,000 J

igneous rocks also form where plates converge. the subducting plate melts as it sinks into the crust of the earth, and the melt rises into the overriding plate forming volcanoes. metamorphic rocks are formed mainly in the lithosphere, wherever there is high pressure and high temperature. -woods
