Based on the information provided, it appears that you will need to calculate the amount of heat absorbed by the water from the peanut that was burned. We are given the following information:
specific heat capacity, c = 1.0 cal/g°C
mass of water = 76 g
Ti = 22°C
Tf = 46°C
change in temperature, ΔT = 24°C
We can use the formula q = mcΔT to measure the amount of energy absorbed by the water to increase in tempature:
q = (76 g)(1.0 cal/g°C)(24°C)
q = 1824 cal
Therefore, the water absorbed 1824 calories from the peanut that was burned.
Answer: By using electrolysis.
Explanation:
Electrolysis is a chemical change produced by sending an electric current through a compound. Electrolysis works because the hydrogen and oxygen ions are held together by an electric attraction.
During feasting, there is an increase in the supply of carbohydrates, fats and proteins in the body. Since these macronutrients are in excess, carbohydrates and proteins are utilized or oxidized as a source for energy production. On the otherhand, fats are accumulated as the rate of oxidation of this source does not increase during feasting.
