10 degrees Celsius
A change of phase takes place at a constant temperature and pressure. During a change of phase, the substance absorbs or releases latent heat without a change in temperature.
The change in temperature is 25 degrees Celsius, meaning it takes 22.48 joules per degree of change. The specific heat of iron is 0.449 J/g degree Celsius. This means that the mass of iron must be 50.07 grams
Heat capacity is the amount of energy it takes to cause a subtance's temperature to increase. Heat capacity has units of energy/(mass*temperature), which shows that heat capacity describes how much energy it takes to raise a particular mass of a substance by a certain unit of temperature. The most common units are J/(goC), or Joules/(gram*degree Celsius). Heat capacity is constant for a substance at a constant temperature, and is usually reported for substances at 25oC. Water has an unusually high heat capacity--4.18 J/(goC). This means that to change the temperature of water requires a relatively high amount of energy.
The process that requires water to gain 2260 joules of energy per gram is known as specific heat capacity. Water has a specific heat capacity of 4.18 J/g°C, which means it takes 4.18 joules of energy to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water by 1 degree Celsius.
The process you are referring to is called water having a specific heat capacity of 4.184 J/g°C. This means that it takes 4.184 joules of energy to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water by 1 degree Celsius. In this case, to gain 2260 joules of energy, it would take approximately 540.3 grams of water.
It takes 4.184 joules of energy to change the temperature of 1 gram of water by 1 degree Celsius.
It takes 4186 joules to raise the temperature of 1 kilogram of water by 1 degree Celsius. The mass does make a difference.
A change of phase takes place at a constant temperature and pressure. During a change of phase, the substance absorbs or releases latent heat without a change in temperature.
The correct value for the specific heat of water is 4.1868 joules per gram per degree Celsius. This means that it takes 4.1868 joules of energy to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water by 1 degree Celsius.
A change of phase takes place at a constant temperature.
The change in temperature is 25 degrees Celsius, meaning it takes 22.48 joules per degree of change. The specific heat of iron is 0.449 J/g degree Celsius. This means that the mass of iron must be 50.07 grams
Energy is actually given off in the lowering of temperature. Use the equation Q = mc(change in T). In this case, m = 2.9, c = 4.179 J, and change in T = -12.1 degree C. Now solve for Q, the heat energy. This exothermic process gives off approximately 146.6 J of heat.
Well, let's see. Water at room temperature has a heat capacity of 4.18 J/g-C, and water also has a density of 1g/mL. If there's one litre of water, there's 1000 g of water. If the change in temperature is 1 C, and there are 1000 g of water, and specific heat capacity's 4.18... Q = mcT Q = (1000g)(4.18J/g-C)(1 C) Q = 4180 J So you need 4180 J of heat. *************************************** The definition of one calorie is as stated in the question. One calorie is equivalent to 4.18 Joules. Not sure where the maths went wrong but just so you know.

Coefficient of expansion
Any number of joules, no matter how small, will raise the temperatureof the water. The total number required in order to accomplish the jobdepends on the final temperature you want to see. The higher that is,the more energy it will take to reach it.
