Answer:

the energy used to heat Cu is 27.6 Cal

Explanation:

given data

mass m = 5 g

Specific heat capacity of Cu =  0.092 cal/g

temperature T2 = 80 Celsius

temperature T1 = 20 Celsius

solution

we get here energy used to heat Cu that is express as

Q = m × c × ΔT         ....................1

so here m = mass and c = specific heat capacity

and ΔT = T2 - T1

so put value in eq 1

Q = 5 × 0.092 × (80 - 20)

Q = 27.6 Cal

so that the energy used to heat Cu is 27.6 Cal
