How many kilojoules are released when 8.2 g of water condenses at 100 °c and cools to 15 °c?

- 2.92 kJ of heat is released.

Solution:- We have water at 100 degree C and it's going to be cool to 15 degree C.

So, change in temperature, = 15 - 100 = -85 degree C

mass of water, m = 8.2 g

specific heat of water, c =

The equation used for solving this type of problems is:

Let's plug in the values in the equation and solve it for q which is the heat energy:

q = (8.2)(4.184)(-85)

q = -2916.248 J

They want answer in kJ. So, let's convert J to kJ and for this we divide by 1000.

q = -2.92 kJ

Negative sign indicates the heat is released. So, in the above process of coiling of water, 2.92 kJ of heat is released.
