Answer:

48,840 J

Explanation:

First of all, you can use process of elimination to take out the negatives, since you can't gain negative heat (in this situation).

Now just for the Math:

Remember this equation — Q = mcΔt

The variables for the equation are:

— m - The measure in grams or kilograms.

— c - The measure of the specific heat.

— Δt - The measure the change in temperature.

Now find these variables:

— m = 1000 g

— c = 0.444 J/goC

— Δt = 130 - 20 = 110 C

Now plug these numbers into the equation and solve!

Q = mcΔt

[tex]Q = (1000 G)(0.444 JgC)(110 C)[/tex]

If you multiply the number you would get 48,840 J. You also have to cancel out the units as well.
