q(joules) = mass * specific heat * change in temperature ( 8 kg = 8000 grams )

q = (8000 grams H2O)(4.180 J/gC)(70o C - 20o C)

= 1.7 X 106 joules

How many joules are absorbed by the water with a mass of 0.5 kg in order to raise the temperature from 30 to 65?

1 joule = 2.39 X 10-4 kcal 65-30 = 35 degrees 1 kcal = 1 degree kg 35 degrees X 0.5 kg / 2.39 X 10-4 kcal/joulle = 73222 joules


What is the quantity of heat in joules needed to raise the temperature of 40.0g of Al from 25 degrees Celsius to 50 degrees Celsius?

E = mass x specific heat x Δ°T Δ°T = new temperature - original temperature where Δ°T is equal to temperature change (Celsius in this case). The specific heat of Al is 0.900 J/g°C. Before we proceed to find the quantity of heat in joules, we must first find the temperature change. To calculate the temperature change, we must subtract the original temperature from the new temperature. Δ°T = 50°C - 25°C = 25°C In order to find the quantity of heat (joules), we must multiply mass, specific heat, and the temperature change (calculated above). E = 40.0g x 0.900 J/g°C x 25°C = 900 Joules or 9.0 x 102 Joules

How many grams of water could be heated from 25 degrees Celsius to 100 degrees Celsius upon absorption of 4.22 kcal of heat?

E = mass x specific heat x Δ°t (temperature change)------------------ Energyspecific heat * temperature change = massΔ°t = new temperature - original temperatureIn order to calculate the mass of water able to be heated, we must divide the given energy by the result of specific heat times temperature change. Before proceeding to do such, we must calculate the temperature change, as well as convert cal to joules. It is also important to know that water's specific heat is 4.184 J/g°C.1. Calculate temperature change.Δ°t = 100°C-25°CΔ°t= 75°C2. Convert kcal to joules (multiply kcal * 103 * 4.184 joules [J]). (kcal --> joules)Joules = 4.22 kcal x 103 cal x 4.184 J/g°C = 17656.48 Joules------------------------ 1 kcal ------ 1 cal3. Find mass.Mass = 17656.48J(4.184J/g°C * 75°C) = 56.3g

What is the final temperature if 4.00 x 104 joules of energy are removed from 500.0g H2O at 10.0 degrees Celsius?

E = mass x sp ht x Δ°tIn order to calculate the final temperature change, we must also find the temperature change.1. Find the temperature change.Divide joules by (mass x specific heat).Δ°t = 40,000J/500.0g x 4.184J/g°CΔ°t = 19.1°C2. Calculate the final temperature.Tf = 10.0 - 19.1Tf = -9.1°CThere was a decrease in temperature, indicating that it was an endothermic reaction (as energy was removed as stated in the question).

How many joules of heat are required to melt 40 kg of ice at 0 dg C?

In order to answer this question, you need the enthalpy of fusion of ice, which is 333.55 J/g (Joules/gram). The enthalpy of fusion is the amount of heat that must be absorbed or lost in order to change physical state. The number of Joules required to melt the ice = enthalpy of fusion of ice x mass of ice. 1 kg = 1000g 40kg x (1000g/1kg) = 40,000g Joules needed to melt the ice = 333.55 J/g x 40000 g = 13342000 J or 1.3342 x 107 J
