The specific heat of ethanol (C2H5OH) is 2.46 J/g ° C. What is the heat capacity of 1.00 kg of ethanol?

The total heat required is 4088.6 J

Explanation:

We have three processes which involve heat absorption. We have to calculate the heat of each process and then to calculate the total heat.

1- liquid ethanol is heated from 25ºC (298 K) to the boiling point 78.5ºc (351.5 K). We use specifi heat of liquid ethanol to calculate the heat absorbed in this part:

H1= m x Sh x ΔT

H1= m x Sh x (Tfinal - Tinitial)

H1= 3.95 g x 2.45 J/g.K x (351.5 K -298 K)

H1= 517.7 JExplanation:

while cooking a piece of 1/2 pound beef steak, a cast iron pan (2.4kg in weight) was heated 260 celsius.

a saline water is fed to a reverse osmosis unit at flow rate o rotameter connected to reject (retentate) line reads 8 installed in reject and permeate line reads 15.2 milli siemens/cm and 300 micro siemens/com respectively.
