Question

15) The average human is ~60% water, which translates to ~44.3 kg of water. If you eat a Reece's peanut butter cup (105 Calories or 4.39 x 105J), how many degrees Celsius (°C) should the 44.3kg of water rise. The specific heat of water is 4.184 J/g.°C. A) 2.37 x 103°C B) 5.66 x 104°C C) 41.5°C D) 2.37°C E) 0.566°C 4.39x1055 0.043 y 4.18488.0​

Answer 1

Answer: D) 2.37°C

Step-by-step explanation:

`4.39x10^5J((g°C)/(4.184J) )((kg)/(1000g))((1)/(44.3kg) )`
`=2.37°C`
