Answer:
10°C
Explanation:
Heat gain by water = Heat lost by the slice of pizza
Thus,

<u>For water: </u>
Volume = 50.0 L
Density of water= 1 kg/L
So, mass of the water:
Mass of water = 50 kg
Specific heat of water = 1 kcal/kg°C
ΔT = ?
For slice of pizza:
Q = 500 kcal
So,
ΔT = 10°C
Increase in temperature = 10°C
Answer:
Explanation:
If the reaction is really exothermic (and it is) then the water would spatter all over the place. It would boil off if the container could hold it. It would also react according to the following reaction.
You are talking about a reaction like
2K + 2HOH = 2KOH + H2
