Question

Calculate the heat capacity of 50 grams of water at 25°C, given that the specific heat capacity of water is 4.18 J/g°C.

Answer 1

To calculate the heat capacity of 50 grams of water, we can use the formula:Heat capacity = mass  specific heat capacitywhere mass is the mass of water  50 grams  and specific heat capacity is the specific heat capacity of water  4.18 J/gC .Heat capacity = 50 g  4.18 J/gC = 209 J/CSo, the heat capacity of 50 grams of water at 25C is 209 J/C.
