AP Chemistry
6.4 Heat Capacity and Calorimetry
A student uses an electric immersion heater to warm a \(100.0\text{ g}\) sample of pure water from \(20.0^\circ\text{C}\) to \(75.0^\circ\text{C}\) at a constant pressure of \(1.0\text{ atm}\). Assuming negligible heat loss to the surroundings, which of the following is closest to the quantity of heat absorbed by the water sample? (The specific heat capacity of liquid water is \(4.18\text{ J}/(\text{g}\cdot^\circ\text{C})\).)
