How many joules of heat are required to raise the temperature of 174g of gold from 22°C to 85°C? The specific heat of gold is 0.129 J/g°C.

Remembering the equation Q=MCdeltaT where
q=is the amount of heat energy
M=mass
C=specific heat
deltaT= change in temperature

Therefore, using the equation we can substitute values and solve for q.
Q= (15 grams) (0.129 J/(gx°C))(85-22)
Q=(15) ((0.129 J/(gx°C)) (63)
Q=121.9 Joules

The energy needed to raise the temperature of 15 grams of gold from 22 degrees Celsius to 85 degrees Celsius is then 121.9 Joules or 122 Joules (if rounded up).
