Answer:
Mass, m = 7.97 grams
Explanation:
We have,
Initial temperature was 34 degrees Celsius
Heat produced in it is 100 calories of heat
The specific heat capacity of water is 4.18 J/g °C
The heat produced due to change in temperature is given by :
[tex]Q=mc(T_f-T_i)[/tex]
m is mass of water in grams
[tex]m=\dfrac{Q}{c(T_f-T_i)}\\\\m=\dfrac{2200}{4.18\times (100-34)}\\\\m=7.97\ g[/tex]
So, 7.97 grams of water is required to produce heat of 2200 joules.
