If the temperature of 15 grams of water changes from 21C to 24C, how many joules of heat were involved? Show work
goblinko [34]

Answer:

189 Joules

Explanation:

Applying,

Q = cm(t₂-t₁)............. equation 1

Where Q = Heat, c = specific heat capacity of water, m = mass of water, t₁ = Initial Temperature, t₂ = Final temperature.

From the question,

Given: m = 15 grams = 0.015 kg, t₁ = 21 °C, t₂ = 24 °C

Constant: c = 4200J/kg.°C

Substitute these values into equation 1

Q = 0.015×4200×(24-21)

Q = 0.015×4200×3

Q = 189 Joules
