The water's specific heat is C=4.184 J g^-1 C^-1.
The water's specific heat tells you that you need 4.184 J
of energy in the form of heat in order to increase the temperature of 1 g
of water by 1∘C
.
ΔT
, is the change in temperature, will be equal to
ΔT=Tfinal−Tinitial
We know that ΔT=19∘CTo increase the temperature of 5 g
of water by 1∘C
, you'd need 5*4.184/1=20,92 20,92*4.184 =87,529 J88 KJ heat is needed to raise the tempertaure of 5g of water by 19.
