If 150.0g of water initially at 92.0 C loses 18.0 kJ of heat, what will the final temperature of the water be? The specific heat of water is 4.184 J/g C. Give your answer to three significant figures and include the proper units.

Answer:

121 degrees C

Explanation:

The units for this problem could all be plugged into the equation q=MC delta T, while you solve for T-final.

18000 J=(150.0 g)(4.184 J/g C)(T-final - 92.0 C)

Since in the problem your q value is identified with the units kJ, you would have to convert it to J so it would work with the specific heat capacity's units that were Joules, Grams, and Celsius.

Next, you would multiply your grams and specific heat capacity together:

18000 J=(627.6)(T-final - 92.0 C)

Then you would divide 627.6 to 18000:

28.7 = T-final - 92.0 C

Finally, you would add 92 C to get your T-final answer:

120.7 C = T-final

But since your answer needs to be in 3 sig figs, your actual answer would be 121 C

I hope this helps!
