The the exact mass is 24.740% (according to the internet) but I’d say that it’s 25
Answer:
29260J
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Mass of water sample = 100g
Initial temperature = 30°C
Final temperature = 100°C
Unknown:
Energy required for the temperature change = ?
Solution:
The amount of heat required for this temperature change can be derived from the expression below;
H = m c (ΔT)
H is the amount of heat energy
m is the mass
c is the specific heat capacity of water = 4.18J/g°C
ΔT is the change in temperature
Now insert the parameters and solve;
H = 100 x 4.18 x (100 - 30)
H = 100 x 4.18 x 70 = 29260J
