Suppose a snack bar is burned in a calorimeter and heats 2,000 g water by 20 °C. How much heat energy was released? (Hint: Use the specific heat equation.) Give your answer in both joules and calorie

Explanation:

Remember that the key is the water so

using the formula q=m*s*deltT

We have the mass 2000g

we have the specific heat of water which is 1.00 cal/ g C

and the final temperature 20 C

Remember that delt T is the change in temperature meaning (Tfinal - Tinitial) Assuming that the water is at room  temperature (25 C)  before starting the reaction then

q= (2000 g)(1.00 cal/g C)(20-25)

q= -10, 000 cal  

if you want you can convert to joules by multiplying by 4.314 J

In more simpler terms - If all the heat released was absorbed by the water, and it takes 1 calorie of heat to raise

the temperature of 1 gram of water by 1°C that is a total of 20 times 2000 or 40,000 cal.

or 40 kilocalories. If you want it in joules, there are 4.184 joules to one calorie so it is

4.184 times 40 or 167.36 kilojoules.

Hope that helped

answer : a model is often used to explain and make things easier to understand when any scientific topic needs to be demonstrated and explained.

as in this case where a scientist wants to use a model to present the results of his detailed scientific investigation. he should do it as it will him to make the audience understand the concept in a much better way. also, it can be changed according to new scientific understandings.

the correct answer is:

a. formation of precipitation
