Answer the following question on the basis of the information given in the table below.

3 kg of soil(dry) at 300 K is heated to reach a temperature of 350 K. The heat supplied to it is ____ J.

The correct answer is: 121500

•  mass of soil = 3kg ; specific heat capacity(S) = 810 ; change in temperature(dT) = 350 - 300 = 50 kelvin
• according to the formula Q = mSdT 
                                          Q = 3 x 810 x 50 
                                          Q = 121500 Joules
