A chemical reaction takes place inside a flask submerged in a water bath. The water bath contains 6.10kg of water at 22.7°C. During the reaction 61.9kJ of heat flows out of the flask and into the bath. Calculate the new temperature of the water bath. You can assume the specific heat capacity of water under these conditions is4.18·J·g−1K−1. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.

A chemical reaction takes place inside a flask submerged in a water bath. The water bath contains 6.10kg of water at 22.7°C. During the reaction 61.9kJ of heat flows out of the flask and into the bath. Calculate the new temperature of the water bath. You can assume the specific heat capacity of water under these conditions is4.18·J·g−1K−1. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.

Expert Solution
Step 1

Given: Mass of water = 6.10 Kg = 6100 g.                                         (Since 1 Kg = 1000 g)

Initial temperature of water = 22.7 oC

And heat released in the reaction = heat absorbed by the water = 61.9 KJ = 61900 J               (Since 1 KJ = 1000 J)
