1. How much heat must be absorbed by 375 grams of water to raise its temperature by 25° C?(Cp of water is 4.184)

39225J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of water  = 375grams of water

Change in temperature  = 25°C

Specific heat capacity of water  = 4.184J/g°C

Unknown:

Amount of heat absorbed  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we use the expression below:

      H  = m c Ф  

H is the heat absorbed

m is the mass

c is the specific heat capacity

Ф is the change in temperature

  Insert the parameters and solve;

      H  = 375 x 4.184 x (25) = 39225J

close lines strong magnet less close weaker

= initial pressure

= final pressure = 2

= initial volume

= final volume = /4

= initial temperature = 20 c = 20 + 273 = 293 k

= final temperature = ?

using the equation
