Suppose you heat 52 kg of water and find that the temperature of the water rises by 7^oC. How many kilocalories have you added to the water?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The heat added to the water can be calculated using the formula: Q = mcΔT, where m is the mass (52 kg), c is the specific heat capacity of water (1 kcal/kg°C), and ΔT is the temperature change (7°C). Thus, Q = 52 kg * 1 kcal/kg°C * 7°C = 364 kcal.
