The final temperature of the water is determined as 50.55 ⁰C.
Final temperature of the water
The final temperature of the water is determined from the following calculations;
Q = mcΔθ
Δθ = Q/mc
where;
- Q is the amount of energy = 81 kcal = 338904 J
- c is specific heat capacity of water = 4,200 J/kgC
Δθ = 338904 /(3.5 x 4200)
Δθ = 23.05 °C
Final temperature = T₁ + Δθ
Final temperature = 27.5°C + 23.05 °C = 50.55 ⁰C.
