What is the heat capacity of 185 g of liquid water?

(a) What is the specific heat capacity of liquid water?
(b) What is the molar heat capacity of liquid water?
(c) What is the heat capacity of 185 g of liquid water?
(d) How much heat energy (in kJ) is required to raise the temperature of 10.00 kg of liquid water from 24.6 °C to 46.2 °C?

1 Answers

(a)

4.184 J/g·°C

(b)

(4.184 J/g·°C) x (18.01532 g H2O/mol) = 75.38 J/mol·°C

(c)

(4.184 J/g·°C) x (185 g) = 774 J/°C

(d)

(10.00 x 10^3 g) x (4.184 J/g·°C) x (46.2 - 24.6)°C = 903744 J = 903.7 kJ
