Question

How much heat is required to raise the temperature of $ 2 \, kg $ of water from $ 20^\circ C $ to $ 80^\circ C $? (Specific heat capacity of water = $ 4200 \, J/kg^\circ C $)

• A. \(504000 \, J\)
• B. \(50400 \, J\)
• C. \(126000 \, J\)
• D. \(168000 \, J\)

Hint:

Tip: Make sure to use consistent units and identify the temperature change correctly.
