How much heat is needed to raise the temperature of a 6 g of water by 10°c

10.5 kJ

Explanation:

In order to be able to solve this problem, you will need to know the value of water's specific heat, which is listed as

c

=

4.18

J

g

∘

C

Now, let's assume that you don't know the equation that allows you to plug in your values and find how much heat would be needed to heat that much water by that many degrees Celsius.

Take a look at the specific heat of water. As you know, a substance's specific heat tells you how much heat is needed in order to increase the temperature of  

1 g

of that substance by  

1

∘

C

.

In water's case, you need to provide  

4.18 J

of heat per gram of water to increase its temperature by  

1

C

.

What if you wanted to increase the temperature of  

1 g

of water by  

2

∘

C

? You'd need to provide it with
