How many joules of energy do you have if you have 0.45 l of water in a can and you heat the 23c water to 55c site: socratic. org

Q = 60192 j

Explanation:

Given data:

Volume of water = 0.45 L

Initial temperature = 23°C

Final temperature = 55°C

Amount of heat absorbed = ?

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°C - 23°C

ΔT = 32°C

one L = 1000 g

0.45 × 1000 = 450 g

Specific heat capacity of water is 4.18 j/g°C

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = 450 g.  4.18 j/g°C.  32°C

Q = 60192 j
