a gold bar weighing 33.5 g and having an initial temperature of 25.0 Celsius absorbs 5000 J of heat. What would the new temperature be?

4 answers

5000 = (specific heat of gold)(T-25)(33.5)
Thank you SOOO much, Damon! I used the formula that you gave, and I got the answer right! I am beyond grateful! :)
I dont quite understand, what are you doing with the 5000 J? In my book it says to divide but I dont know why
So, what is the actual answer? Because I keep getting an answer over 100 and i do not think that is correct.
