Given that
Mass of water = 65.34 g
Amount of heat = mass of water * specific heat (temperature change
)
= 65.34 g * 4.184 J / g-C ( 21.75-18.43 )C
= 907.63 J
= 0.908 KJ
And
1 cal = 4.186798 J
907.63 J * 1 cal / 4.186798 J =216.78 cal
Or0.218 kcal
because it can influence how frequently and sufficiently the particles collide depending on the space it has to do so, for example a large surface area would be have a slower rate of reaction and a lower temperature. (the rate of reaction in terms of concentration, it is diffused from high to low)
Absolute dating is finding the exact date of an artifact such as a fossil using a technique such as radioactive dating, etc.
