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 change 1 gallon of water at 32 degrees to ice at 32 degrees?
You would need to remove approximately 1200 BTUs of heat to convert a gallon of water to ice. There are 8.34 lb in a gallon of water, which converting to lb-moles is 0.463. The latent heat of crystallization for water is -2583.4 BTU/lb-mole. Multiplying the two together and you get -1197 BTUs, which means you need to remove that amount of heat to convert the gallon of water to ice.
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 will it take to raise 10 pounds of water from -5 to 220 Degrees?
2250
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 is required psf for an central ac unit?
50
How many watts in 12000 BTU?
To convert a watt to BTUs, the factor is 1 kilowatt of power = 3412.1416 BTU/hr 3.412 BTUs equal a watt. 1200 watt = 4094.4 BTUS you will need to remove about 4100 BTU/hr
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 required to raise the temperature of a room by 10 F?
It depends on the volume of the room.

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 BTU are generated to get water to 212 degrees?
This question is a little confusing in that BTUs are not generated in raising the temperature of anything; the input of heat is required. And if the questioner meant required instead of generated, then the question is still unanswerable as the amount of water must be specified, AND the starting temperature must be specified.
How many btus does it take to raise of 5 pounds of water to 5 degrees Fahrenheit?
25
How many Btus will it take to raise 10 pounds of water from -5 to 220 Degrees?
2250
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 BTU's does it take to evaporate one pound of water?
BTUs to Evaporate One Pound of WaterQuick Answer: Somewhere around 1000BTU/lb Long answer: It depends on the temperature of the water you start with. Before you can evaporate the water, you must heat it to it's boiling point. The warmer the water you start with the fewer BTUs will be needed to heat the water to its boiling point. Keep in mind the BTUs require to raise the water to its boiling point are very few compared to the BTUs required to change the water from a liquid to a gas.One pound of steam contains 1150 BTUs. This is the energy you need to put into the water for it to evaporate if you start with water at 32F. If you start with water at 100F the water already has 70 BTU/lb so the BTUs required to evaporate the water when you start at 100F is 1150-70 = 1080 BTU and so on.You can get all this information in a steam table which can be found easily by searching the web.
