How much heat is needed to increase the temperature of 1 gallon of water?

Any amount of energy you like greater than 0; the larger the amount of energy you give it, the larger the temperature increase will be.
Perhaps you should specify by how much temperature you want the gallon of water to increase and you may get a more specific answer.

How many pounds of ice equal one imperial gallon of water?
10 pounds of water (molten ice) = 1 imperial gallon. (at standard atmospheric pressure and temperature).
If a piece of iron with a temperature of 300 degrees celsius is dropped into a gallon of water with a temperature of 25 degrees Celsius heat will?
heat will flow from the iron to the water until both are the same temperature
How much water does it take to fill a gallon?
Errrh, would it be a gallon of water?
What is kcal?
1 kcal equal 1 000 calories or 4,184 joules. 1 calorie is equal to the heat needed to increase the temperature of 1 g water with 1 0C.
How many btu does it take to raise the temperature of 1 gallon of water 1 degree if water was already 50 degrees?
U.S.gallon = 8.33 pounds of water. Therefore to raise the temperature by one degree F will require 8.33 BTU. The initial temperature of 50 F is inconsequential.
How many halfpint cartons of water are needed to fill the gallon container?
16 halfpint cartons of water are needed to fill the gallon container
Does the volume of water affect the temperature increase when reacted with calcium oxide?
yeah the temperature does increase, when you increase the volume of water the temperature of calcium hydroxide increases too!
Which process in the water cycle is caused by an increase in temperature?
Evaporation is the process in the water cycle caused by an increase in temperature.
What information is needed to calculate the amount of energy needed to heat of volume of water to some temperature?
You need the amount of water, the temperature of the water, and the desired temperature.
Why does temperature of water lowers on adding glucose?
It will increase the surface tension of water hence temperature decreases. If you add phenol to water temperature increase as it decreases the surface tension.
how much energy is needed to increase the temperature of 1kg of water from 20°C to 40°C. (specific heat capacity of water is 4kJ/°C/kg)?

Why does an egg get hard boiled faster in salted water?
Because when you add salt to water you increase the boiling point (the temperature at which a fluid boils) and so you are cooking the egg at a higher temperature, therefore less time is needed.
Why does water evaporate from your cup?
When water molecules at the surface gain sufficient energy they can escape in the atmosphere. Evaporation (not vaporization) occur at any temperature; but a higher temperature increase the rate of evaporation. The energy of water molecules increase by a temperature increase.
Does the volume of salty water increase when its temperature increases?
Yes, though it is slight, the volume increase is measurable when the temperature of salt water increases.
What best describes how water evaporate?
The energy of water molecules increase by a temperature increase and some molecules at the surface can escape in the atmosphere. But water is evaporated at any temperature.
How can you get more salt to dissolve in water?
Increase the temperature of the water.
Would you answer if the water boils at 100 on the oven we increase the temperature does it go uper and uper or just it becomes faster?
Once a liquid reaches its boiling point (100oC for water), the temperature of the liquid will no longer increase, no matter how much you increase the temperature of the heat source. The only way to increase the temperature of the water is to increase the pressure on it. This is the principle behind a pressure cooker.
