AI Generated Solution

To calculate the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 800 g of iron from 40°C to 240°C, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Convert mass from grams to kilograms The mass of iron is given as 800 g. To convert this to kilograms, we use the conversion factor: \[ \text{Mass in kg} = \frac{800 \text{ g}}{1000} = 0.8 \text{ kg} \] ...
