Solution

To solve this problem, we need to use the formula for heat transfer which is:

q = mcΔT

where:

  • q is the heat absorbed,
  • m is the mass,
  • c is the specific heat, and
  • ΔT is the change in temperature.

Given:

  • m = 4.1 g,
  • c = 0.385 J/g°C, and
  • ΔT = 74.6°C - 15.3°C = 59.3°C.

Substituting these values into the formula gives:

q = (4.1 g)(0.385 J/g°C)(59.3°C) = 93.6 J.

So, the heat absorbed when the temperature of a 4.1 g copper coin increases from 15.3 °C to 74.6 °C is 93.6 J. Therefore, the correct answer is b. 93.6 J.
