Calculate the energy absorbed by 20 grams of water that warms from
The energy absorbed by 20 grams of water that warms from 300C to 900 C.
Answer to Problem 21A
The heat absorbed is 1200 Calorie.
Explanation of Solution
Given info:
The amount of water m = 20 g
The change in temperature of water
The specific capacity of water Cw= 1 Cal/g 0C
Let Q is the heat energy absorbed by water.
Formula used:
Calculation:
Substituting the given values, we get
Conclusion:
Thus, the energy absorbed by 20 g water that warms from 300C to 600C is 20 Calorie.
