The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the increase in temperature (ΔT) of 1 kg of water when 10 kJ of heat is supplied, using the molar heat capacity at constant pressure (C_p). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify Given Values:** - Molar heat capacity of water, \( C_p = 75 \, \text{J K}^{-1} \text{mol}^{-1} \) - Heat supplied, \( Q = 10 \, \text{kJ} = 10,000 \, \text{J} \) - Mass of water, \( m = 1 \, \text{kg} \) 2. **Calculate the Number of Moles of Water:** - The molecular mass of water (H₂O) is approximately \( 18 \, \text{g/mol} \). - Convert the mass of water from kg to g: \( 1 \, \text{kg} = 1000 \, \text{g} \). - Calculate the number of moles (\( n \)): \[ n = \frac{\text{mass}}{\text{molecular mass}} = \frac{1000 \, \text{g}}{18 \, \text{g/mol}} \approx 55.56 \, \text{mol} \] 3. **Use the Heat Transfer Formula:** - The formula relating heat, molar heat capacity, number of moles, and temperature change is: \[ Q = n \cdot C_p \cdot \Delta T \] - Rearranging for \( \Delta T \): \[ \Delta T = \frac{Q}{n \cdot C_p} \] 4. **Substitute the Known Values:** - Substitute \( Q = 10,000 \, \text{J} \), \( n \approx 55.56 \, \text{mol} \), and \( C_p = 75 \, \text{J K}^{-1} \text{mol}^{-1} \): \[ \Delta T = \frac{10,000 \, \text{J}}{55.56 \, \text{mol} \cdot 75 \, \text{J K}^{-1} \text{mol}^{-1}} \] 5. **Calculate \( \Delta T \):** - Calculate the denominator: \[ 55.56 \cdot 75 \approx 4167 \, \text{J K}^{-1} \] - Now calculate \( \Delta T \): \[ \Delta T = \frac{10,000}{4167} \approx 2.4 \, \text{K} \] ### Final Answer: The increase in temperature of the water is approximately \( \Delta T \approx 2.4 \, \text{K} \). ---
