you have 17 grams of water and you increase the temperature by 15 degrees Celsius how many joules did this take?

a. 255
b. 1067
c. 1.13
d. 63

Respuesta :

Answer: the correct answer is option(d).

Explanation:

Energy required ,Q= ?

Mass of water , m = 17 grams

Temperature difference or[tex]\Delta T[/tex] = 15 °C

Specific heat value of water = 4.186 J/g °C

[tex]Q=mc\Delta T=17\times 4.186 J/g^oC\times 15^oC=1,067.43 J\approx 1,067 J[/tex]

From the given value the , nearest value to to our calculated answer is 1067 J that option (b).

Hence, the correct answer is option (d).
