How much heat is needed to melt 14.3kg of silver that is initially at 44°C?
Answered by Nonetheless

Google the specific heat of silver:
0.2386476 J/gC

Convert kg to g:
14.3 kg = 14300 g

Google the melting point of silver:
961.8 C

Thus the required temperature change is 961.8 - 44 = 921.8 C

0.2386476 J/gC x 14300 g x 921.8 C
= _______ J of heat
