    Since the substance absorbs heat, it is expected that the temperature will rise. The formula for the internal energy of a substance is given by the equation:

    ΔU = mCpΔT

    where:

    ΔU = internal energy

    m = mass of substance

    Cp = specific heat capacity of substance

    ΔT = change in temperature

    ΔU = 2722 Joules = 16.2 grams (9.22 J/g-°C) (Tf - 26°C)

    This gives a final temperature of Tf = 44.22 °C
