The initial temperature of 150 g of ethanol was 22 C. What will be the final temperature of the ethanol if 3240 J was needed to raise the temperature of the ethanol

Explanation:

Using the formula for heart capacity;

Q = mcΔt

m is the mass = 150g = 0.15kg

initial temperature = 22°C

Quantity of heat = 3240J = 3.24kJ

specific heat capacity of ethanol = 2.57 [kJ/kg K]

Substitute and get the final temperature

3.240 = 0.15(2.57)(T - 22)

3.240 = 0.3855(T-22)

3.240/0.3855 = T - 22

8.405 = T - 22

T = 22+8.405

T = 30.405°C

Hence the final temperature of the ethanol if 3240 J was needed to raise the temperature of the ethanol is 30.405°C

as technology advances, new experiments often expose problems in accepted theories. c
