what is the answer?

Question

The specific heat of a certain type of cooking oil is 1.75 J/(g⋅°C). How much heat energy is needed to raise the temperature of 2.72 kg of this oil from 23 °C to 191 °C?



𝑞=

Answer 1

q=mcdT

where q is energy m is mass c is specific heat capacity and dT is change in temperature

q=(2.72E3g)(1.75J/gC)(191-23)

q=7.99E5 J
