Question

Calculate the heat that must be supplied to
a 532 , stainless steel vessel containing 375 g
of water to raise its temperature from 35 C
to the boiling point of water 100°C. Cs. =0.51 J/g. degrees C
Answer in units of J.

Also what percentage of the heat is used to raise the temperature of the water?

Answer 1

Answer:

Q must be supplied = 119523.3~J

Explanation:

The law of conservation of energy can be applied to heat changes, i.e. the heat received/absorbed is the same as the heat released  

Q in = Q out  

Heat can be calculated using the formula:  

Q = mc∆T  

Q = heat, J  

m = mass, g  

c = specific heat, joules / g ° C  

∆T = temperature difference, ° C / K  

So from the question :

Q to the system(Q supplied) = Q water + Q steel vessel(Q gained)
