A swimming pool, 20.0 m ✕ 12.5 m, is filled with water to a depth of 3.81 m. If the initial temperature of the water is 18.9°C, how much heat must be added to the water to raise its temperature to 30.1°C? Assume that the density of water is 1.000 g/mL.

Answer 1

q = mcdT
q = ?
volume = 3.81m x 20.0m x 12.5m = ? m^3 and convert to mL. Since the density is 1.00 g/mL, that will be the mass.
dT = Tfinal-Tinitial
