How many btus does it take to raise of 5 pounds of water to 5 degrees Fahrenheit?

25


How many BTUs does it take to raise the temperature of water from 32 degrees to 300 degrees?

That will completely depend on how much water there is.


How many btus are required to change five pounds of ice at 20 degrees to steam at 220 degrees?

6,520 Btus


How many Btus will it take to raise 10 pounds of Ice from -5 to 220 Degrees?

If you're in Celsius, 13459.5 Btu's. If you're in Fahrenheit, 12632.5 Btu's.


How many btus does it take to raise half pound of water 1 degree?

One BTU is the energy required to raise one pound of water by one degrees. Therefore, your answer would be one half.


How many BTUs does it take to heat 390 gallon tank of water from 60 degrees to 248 degrees?

The specific heat of water is 1 BTU per pound per degree Fahrenheit. There are 8.3378 lbs/gallon at 60 degrees, which equals 3251.742 pounds of water. The number of BTUs to raise it 188 degrees is then 611,327.496 BTUs.


What mass of water can be heated from 25 degrees celsius to 5 degrees celsius by the addition of 2825 joules?

None. Changing water from 25 degrees C to 5 degrees C requires heat to be REMOVED, not added!


What is 650 degrees in BTUs?

One measure does not directly translate to another. A BTU is the amount of heat that it takes to raise the temp of one pound of water by one degree F. A burning match, and a burning fireplace may both be at 650 degrees, but the fireplace gives off more heat (more BTUs)


BTUs to melt one pound of ice?

From high school science class; it takes 144 BTUs to melt a pound of ice. That takes it to 32 degrees F. To then raise the temp to 72 deg., would take about 40 more BTUs.


How many Btu are required to raise the temperature of 15lb of water from 100F to 120F?

1 btu raises 1 lb water 1 degree F from 62 to 63 degrees. generally 1 btu/lb/degree F x 20 degrees F difference x 15 lbs = 300 btus specifically the heat of the liquid at 100F is 67.97 btus and at 120F = 87.92 btu 87.92 - 67.97 = 19.95 btu 19.95 x 15 lbs. = 299.25 btus to be more accurate


How many btu's in office water-cooler?

There are no BTUs in an office water-cooler. But you can calculate how many BTUs are removed by the cooler. One BTU or British Thermal Unit is the amount of heat energy required to raise the temperature of one pound of water one degree Fahrenheit. There for when you remove one BTU you are lowering one pound of water one degree Fahrenheit. So if you know how many pounds of water you have and the temperature of the water you start with and the temperature of the water comming out of the cooler you can calculate how many BTUs the cooling unit of the water cooler has removed. BTU=Temp1 - Temp 2 X LB water


How many btus must be removed from one pound of water at 200 degrees f for it to end up as ice at 30 degrees f?

313 Btu
