Answer:
0.583 kilojoules
Explanation:
The amount of heat required to pop a single kernel can be calculated using the formula as follows:
Q = m × c × ∆T
Where;
Q = amount of heat (J)
m = mass of water (g)
c = specific heat capacity of water (4.184 J/g°C)
∆T = change in temperature
From the given information, m = 0.905 g, initial temperature (room temperature) = 21°C , final temperature = 175°C, Q = ?
Q = m × c × ∆T
Q = 0.905 × 4.184 × (175°C - 21°C)
Q = 3.786 × 154
Q = 583.044 Joules
In kilojoules i.e. we divide by 1000, the amount of heat is:
= 583.04/1000
= 0.583 kilojoules
1 mole = 6.02 * 10^23 atoms
This is known as Avogadro's Number. This value is approximate.
