Calculate the amount of heat that must be supplied to raise the temperature of 2 kg of water from 25^(@)C to its boiling point at one atmospheric pressure. The average specific heat of water in the range 25 - 100^(@)C is 4.184 JK^(-1) g^(-1).

Answer»

628 KJ
418.4 kJ
209.2 kJ
108.6 kJ

Solution :Heat required for HEATING = `m xx C_(s) xx Delta T`
`m = 2000g, Delta T = 100 - 25 = 75^(@)`,
`C_(s) = 4.184 JK^(-1) g^(-1)`
Heat required = `2000 x 4.184 xx 75`
`= 6.28 xx 10^(5) J`
or= 628 kJ
