Suppose G gallons are used.

Before mixing, you have

5*65 + G*120 = 325 + 120G gallon-degrees.

After mixing, you have

(5+G)*70 gallon-degrees

So 325 + 120G = (5+G)*70 = 350 + 70G

So 50G = 25

G = 0.5 gallons.

90 gallons of 50 degree water plus 90 gallons of 150 degree water equals what temp?

Assuming that you are using the near obsolete units for measuring temperature, the answer is 180 gallons at 100 degrees Fahrenheit.


How many gallons of boiling water would you have to add to a five hundred gallon tank to raise the temperature twenty degrees?

how hot is the boiling water? That makes a big difference? (is that a homework question?) I'm just trying to apply logic here, bear in mind there may be some special properties that you may have to account for like the glass/plexiglas that the water is in will have to have its temp raised also. So here goes... Raising 500 gallons of water 20 degrees would seem to require a combined value of 10,000 degrees (500 gallons times 20 degrees). So first you need to know the temperature difference between the existing water and boiling. Then devide the resulting difference into the 10,000 degrees for your simplistic answer. However, it is a bit more complicated if the tank is full at 500 gallons because you have no room to add the boiling water. That is, it would roughly take 62 gallons of boiling water to raise 500 gallons of 50 degree water to 70 degrees and the tankwouyld obviously overflow. So if it was already full you would have had to remove 62 gallons first leaving 438 gallons and consequently reducing your degree needs to 8760 degrees which means if you add the 62 gallons of boiling water you would have ended up with 72.7 degree water. So, I'd reduce the capacity to 445 gallons and add 55 gallons of boiling water and you should be pretty close.


How many gallons of water at 40 degrees will it take to cool off 800 gallons of 110 degree water?

That all depends on what you want the final temperature of the mixture to be. Technically, one single drop of 40-degree water will reduce the temperature of the 800 gallons.


How many calories are required to raise the temperature of 1 g of water by 5 degrees C?

It takes 1 calorie to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water by 1 degree Celsius. Therefore, to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water by 5 degrees Celsius, it would require 5 calories.


How much dry ice would it take to cool 30000 gallons of water by 5-8 degrees?

To cool 30000 gallons of water by 5-8 degrees, you would need approximately 215-320 pounds of dry ice. Each pound of dry ice can cool about 10 gallons of water by 1 degree. So, for a 5-8 degree temperature drop in 30000 gallons of water, you would need to use 215-320 pounds of dry 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 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 watts of heat to raise 55.32 gallons of water to 160 degrees?

A watt is a unit of power: what is required is probably the amount of energy - which is measured in joules.


How many calories to raise i gram of water 40 degrees c?

To raise 1 gram of water by 40 degrees Celsius, you need 40 calories. This is based on the specific heat capacity of water, which is approximately 1 calorie per gram per degree Celsius. Therefore, for a temperature increase of 40 degrees, you multiply 40 degrees by 1 calorie per gram.


What is the amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water by 1 degrees Celsius?

The specific heat capacity of water is 4.18 Joules/gram degrees Celsius. Therefore, it would take 4.18 Joules of energy to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water by 1 degree Celsius.


) The temperature of a sample of water changes from 10 and degC to 20 and degC when the water absorbs 100 calories of heat. What is the mass of the sample?

one calorie of heat is able to raise one gram of water one degree Celsius so 400 calories could raise 1g of water 400 degrees, so it would raise the 80g by(400/80) 5 degrees Celsius plus the initial temp of 10 degrees, the 80g of water would have a final temp of 15 degrees Celsius
