Question
The specific heat capacity of butanone is 1.69J/grams Celsius and it's boiling point is 79 Celsius. If 1.250g of butanone at 15 Celsius is heated by adding 100J of energy, will it boil

q = mass x specific heat x (Tfinal-Tinitial)
100 = 1.250g x 1.69 J/g*C x (Tf-15)
Solve for Tf and compare with 79C.
100 = 1.250g x 1.69 J/g*C x (Tf-15)
Solve for Tf and compare with 79C.
