To determine the specific heat of silver, we can use the formula that relates heat absorbed, mass, specific heat, and change in temperature. Here’s a step-by-step solution: ### Step 1: Identify the given values - Change in temperature (ΔT) = 10.0 °C - Heat absorbed (Q) = 1.23 kJ = 1.23 × 10^3 J (since 1 kJ = 1000 J) - Mass of the silver bar (m) = 525 g = 0.525 kg (since 1000 g = 1 kg) ### Step 2: Write the formula for heat transfer ...
