At a certain elevation, the boiling point of water is 98.5°C. How much energy is needed to heat 35.0 mL of water to the boiling point at this elevation if the water initially was at 23.4°C?

Question

(Cp=75.38J/(mol*C), d= 1.00g/mL)

Answer 1

q = mass H2O x specific heat H2O x (Tfinal-Tinitial)
Tfinal = 98.5 C
Tinitial = 23.4 C

Answer 2

11.0kJ
