Question

How much heat was transferred from 50.0 g of water if the temperature of the water went from 30.0 ° C to 55.0 °? The specific heat capacity of the water is 4.18 J/(g•K)

Answer 1

Answer:

Heat transfer = Q = 62341.6 J

Explanation:

Given data:

Heat transfer = ?

Mass of water = 50.0 g

Initial temperature = 30.0°C

Final temperature = 55.0°C

Specific heat capacity of water = 4.184 J/g.K

Solution:

Formula:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = amount of heat absorbed or released

m = mass of given substance

c = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = change in temperature

ΔT = 55.0°C -  30.0°C

ΔT = 25°C (25+273= 298 K)

Q = 50.0 g × 4.184 J/g.K ×298 K

Q = 62341.6 J
