637,980 Joules is needed to raise the temperature of 2.50 kg of this oil from 23 ∘C to 191 ∘C.
The heat in calories required to raise the temperature of one gram of a substance one degree Celsius.
Q = cmΔT
where
Q = heat energy needed for that material to get desired temperature change (in Joules)
M = mass (in grams) so you have to convert from kilograms.
c = specific heat constant for the material being heated
ΔT = change in temperature
Q = (1.75)(2.17 x 1000)(191 - 23)
Q = (1.75)(2170)(168)
Q = 637,980 Joules
Hence, 637,980 Joules is needed to raise the temperature of 2.50 kg of this oil from 23 ∘C to 191 ∘C.
