Here we have to calculate the heat required to raise the temperature of water from 85.0 ⁰F to 50.4 ⁰F.
10.857 kJ heat will be needed to raise the temperature from 50.4 ⁰F to 85.0 ⁰F
The amount of heat required to raise the temperature can be obtained from the equation H = m×s×(t₂-t₁).
Where H = Heat, s =specific gravity = 4.184 J/g.⁰C, m = mass = 135.0 g, t₁ (initial temperature) = 50.4 ⁰F or 10.222 ⁰C and t₂ (final temperature) = 85.0⁰F or 29.444 ⁰C.
On plugging the values we get:
H = 135.0 g × 4.184 J/g.⁰C×(29.444 - 10.222) ⁰C
Or, H = 10857.354 J or 10.857 kJ.
Thus 10857.354 J or 10.857 kJ heat will be needed to raise the temperature.
