Answer:
2.74 Joules
Explanation:
The heat capacity of the metal is the amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of the metal by 1 k
heat capacity c of the sear grill = 458.5 J/K
initial temperature T1 = 292.5 K
final temperature T2 = 459.7 K
temperature change ΔT= 459.7 - 292.5 = 167.2 K
since the heat capacity is heat energy needed per degree rise in Kelvin, then the heat to raise the metal by this temperature change will be
heat required = c/ΔT = 458.5/167.2 = 2.74 Joules
