Answer 1

2500 Calories IS REQUIRED TO HEAT 50 g OF WATER FROM 25 C TO 75 C

Step-by-step explanation:

Specific heat of water = 1 cal/gC

Mass = 50 g

Temperature change = 75 C - 25 C = 50 C

How many calories are required to heat the 50 g of water?

Heat = mass * specific heat * temperature change

Heat = 50 * 1 * 50

Heat = 2500 Calories

In other words, 2500 calories is required to heat 50 g of water from 25 C to 75 C.
