<h2>Answer </h2>
Option C - 320J
<u>Explanation </u>
Since ethanol solid at −120 °C and is only cooling down (it won’t change states)
. The amount of Thermodynamic properties values c is given in form of solid, liquid and gas. Amount of energy released is calculated below.
Formula,
= change in temperature x specific heat capacity for solid ethanol x 40
=> 0.5 x 16x 40 = 320J
Therefore, the 320J of heat is released when 40.0g of ethanol cools.
