2. A small immersion heater was used to heat water in an insulated cup. The heater was placed in 100.0 g of distilled water initially at 21.0°C, and turned on for 60.0 seconds while the water was stirred with a thermometer. The final temperature of the water was measured to be 37.5°C. Assume the specific heat capacity of the water is 4.18 J/g °C. (a) Calculate the total heat energy in joules absorbed by the water and the average power in watts (1 watt = 1 joule/s) delivered by the heater. The heater was used to deliver 3000 joules of energy to 100.0 g of methanol (CH,OH(E)) in the same manner. The temperature of the methanol increased by 11.8 Celsius degrees.
