The table shows the specific heat capacities of various substances. How much energy is required to raise the temperature of 5g of air by 10°C? Use the table below to help you.

Answer:
Q = 50.25 [J]
Explanation:
To solve this problem we must use the following equation that relates the temperature change with the mass and with the specific heat.
Q = m*Cp*(DT)
where:
Q = energy in form of heat [J]
m = mass = 5 [g] = 0.005 [kg]
Cp = specific heat = 1005 [J/kg*°C]
DT = temperature change = 10 [°C]
Now replacing:
Q = 0.005*1005*10
Q = 50.25 [J]
