It takes 4186 joules to raise the temperature of 1 kilogram of water by 1 degree Celsius. The mass does make a difference.

How many watts are required to raise 1 gallon of water 1 degree F?

1 gallon of water is 4540 cc and 1 degree F is 0.555 degrees C, so raising 4540 cc of water by 0.555 degree C would take 4540x0.555 calories, or 2520 calories. Multiply by 4.2 to convert to joules which gives 10590 joules. Therefore the energy required is 10590 joules which is the same as 10590 watt-seconds. That could be done by 100 watts in 105.9 seconds, or 1000 watts in 10.59 seconds.


What is the amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water by 1 degrees Celsius?

The specific heat capacity of water is 4.18 Joules/gram degrees Celsius. Therefore, it would take 4.18 Joules of energy to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water by 1 degree Celsius.


Which process required water to gain 2260 joules of energy per gram?

The process you are referring to is called water having a specific heat capacity of 4.184 J/g°C. This means that it takes 4.184 joules of energy to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water by 1 degree Celsius. In this case, to gain 2260 joules of energy, it would take approximately 540.3 grams of water.


Does it it take more energy to heat the water to 100 degrees celsius or boil it?

If by "boil" you mean have it all evaporate, that takes MUCH more energy. For example, to increase the temperature of one gram of water from 20 to 100 degrees Celsius, you need 4.2 joules/gram/degree times 80 degrees = about 336 joules; then, to evaporate all the water, you need an additional 2257 joules.


How much joules does it take to heat water to 100 degrees?

To heat 1 gram of water by 1 degree Celsius, it takes 4.18 joules. So, to heat water from, for example, 20 degrees to 100 degrees, you would need to calculate the total mass of water and apply the specific heat capacity to determine the total energy required.


How many calories required to raise temperature of 1 liter of water 1 degree centigrade?

Well, let's see. Water at room temperature has a heat capacity of 4.18 J/g-C, and water also has a density of 1g/mL. If there's one litre of water, there's 1000 g of water. If the change in temperature is 1 C, and there are 1000 g of water, and specific heat capacity's 4.18... Q = mcT Q = (1000g)(4.18J/g-C)(1 C) Q = 4180 J So you need 4180 J of heat. *************************************** The definition of one calorie is as stated in the question. One calorie is equivalent to 4.18 Joules. Not sure where the maths went wrong but just so you know.


How many calories does it take to heat 1 liter of water 1 degree?

It takes 1000 calories to heat 1 litre of water 1 degree C.


How much energy would be required to raise one liter of water by one degree celsius?

280,000 gallons * 16 pounds per gallon = 4,480,000 pounds of water 1 BTU to raise 1 pound of water 1 degree F (at 60 to 61, Standard Atmospheric Pressure) 1 pound of propane ~ 22,000 BTU 4,480,000 / 22,000 ~ 203 203 pounds of propane ~ 50 gallons Burning approx 50 gallons of propane will heat 280,000 gallons of water by one degree. (Hardly a geothermal event, they burn more propane in the average tailgate at a NFL game.)


How many btu does it take at 212 F water?

Not sure exactly what you are asking but it takes 1 btu to raise the temprerature of 1 pound of water by 1 degree F. ( 4.2 joules to raise 1 lb by 1 degree Celsius ) so it depends on how much water we are talking about. there is also a transition to boiling where the water has reached 212 'F and has not yet begun to boil... it then takes an additional 970.3 btu's ( per lb ) for the water to achieve boiling, this is called the latent heat of vapourization .. hope this helps


How many joules are required to boil one liter of water?

Any number of joules, no matter how small, will raise the temperatureof the water. The total number required in order to accomplish the jobdepends on the final temperature you want to see. The higher that is,the more energy it will take to reach it.


How much energy does it take to raise a volume of water by one celsius?

Well it depends on the volume of water. It takes one calorie per gram of water. Calorie is a unit of energy. It takes 4.18 Joule to raise one gram of water one degree. Joules are the scientific unit of energy. One gram of water has a volume of 1 cm3.


How many BTU's does it take to turn 32 degree water into 32 degree ice?

I assume you mean degrees Fahrenheit. First you must remove heat to make ice not add it. Next, the amount depends largely on the quantity (mass) of water being frozen. Water has a enthalpy of fusion of 333.55 KJ / Kg This means that for each kilogram of water you must remove 333.55 kilo-Joules to make it into ice. A conversion factor of 1 : 0.9478 between KJ and BTU gives us 316.14 BTU per Kilogram of water.
