Question

How much heat must be used to raise the

temperature of 180. g water from 19° C to 96°C?
The specific heat of water is 4.18 J/gºC.

Answer 1

Q = 57934.8 J

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

Mass of water = 180.0 g

Initial temperature = 19°C

Fina temperature = 96°C

Specific heat capacity of water = 4.18 J/g.°C

Heat absorbed = ?

Solution:

Formula:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = amount of heat absorbed or released

m = mass of given substance

c = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = change in temperature

ΔT = 96°C - 19°C

ΔT = 77°C

Q = 180.0 g×4.18 J/g.°C×77°C

Q = 57934.8 J
