Answer:
Q = 1252.82kJ
Explanation:
Mass = 179g
Initial temperature (T1) = 25°C = (25+273.15)K = 298.15K
Final temperature (T2) = 82.70°C = (82.70 + 273.15)K = 335.85K
Specific heat capacity (c) = 121.3J/g.K
Heat energy (Q) = mc∇T
M = mass of the substance
Q = heat energy
c = specific heat capacity of the substance
∇T = change in temperature of the substance = T2 - T1
Q = mc∇T
Q = 179 × 121.3 × (355.85 - 298.15)
Q = 21712.7 × 57.7
Q = 1,252,822.79
Q = 1252.82kJ
The heat energy required to heat 179g of acetic acid from 25°C to 82.70°C is 1252.82kJ
