Answer:
Q = 75.312 KJ
Explanation:
Heat is the amount of the thermal energy contained in an object measured in joules. When heat energy is transferred to an object, the temperature of the object changes depending on the amount of heat applied and the type of object.
Given that:
mass of water (m) = 225 g, Temperature difference ([tex]\Delta T[/tex]) = 100°C - 20°C = 80°C, Water’s specific heat capacity ([tex]c_p[/tex]) = 4.184 J/g°C
The quantity of heat (Q) is given as:
[tex]Q=mc_p\Delta T[/tex]
[tex]Q= 225g *4.184J/g^0C*80=75312J=75.312KJ[/tex]
