Suppose you wanted to heat a mug of water (178 ml) from room temperature 10 °c to 52 °c to make a cup of tea. how much energy (in units of joules) would you need from your microwave? (cwater=4.184 j/g˚c)

Q = 31279.6  j

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass = 178 mL

Initial temperature = 10°C

Final temperature = 52°C

Specific heat capacity = 4.184 j/g.°C

Heat absorbed = ?

Solution:

First of all we will convert the mL to g.

178 mL×1 L/1000 mL = 0.178 L

1 L = 1000 g

0.178 × 1000 = 178 g

Formula:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = amount of heat absorbed or released

m = mass of given substance

c = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = change in temperature

ΔT = T2 - T1

ΔT =  52°C - 10°C

ΔT = 42°C

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = 178 g× 4.184 J/g.°C ×42°C

Q = 31279.6  j

a  solution  is always transparent, light passes through with no scattering from solute particles which are molecule in size. the  solution  is homogeneous and does not settle out. a colloid is intermediate between asolution  and a  suspension. while asuspension  will separate out a colloid will not.

the food using pesticides in the future will harm you by giving you diseases like cancer or something since they have things that we should not eat in it like chemicals or pesticides. that is why organic food is more expensive because they take the time to make it right and healthy for you to eat.
