Is this correct? How much heat did the calorimeter gain?
If a calorimeter has a mass of 6.0g, a specific heat of 2.0J(g*C), and it and its contents undergo a temperature increase of 5.5 C, how much heat is gained by the calorimeter?
I got (6)(2)(5.5)=66J, following q=mcT. I was wondering if this is correct, thank you.
