The temperature of a piece of a metal was 32°C. It was then lowered into a glass of hot water and the temperature of the piece of metal increased to 36°C. What is the percentage increase in temperature of a piece of metal?
Answer:
1.31%
Step-by-step explanation:
The temperature of a piece of a metal was 32°C. It was then lowered into a glass of hot water and the temperature of the piece of metal increased to 36°C. What is the percentage increase in temperature of a piece of metal?
Convert first both initial and final temperatures into absolute temperature (kelvin unit)
initial temperature = 32 +273.15 = 305.15 K
final temperature = 36 +273.15 = 309.`15 k
temperature difference = 4 K
percent increase = 4K/ (305.15K) *100% = 1.31%
