When boiling water, a hot plate takes an average of 8 minutes and 55 seconds to boil 100 milliliters of water. Assume the temper

alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

90.9 seconds

Explanation:

m = Mass of liquid = Volume×Density

c = Specific heat

$\Delta T$ = Change in temperature

t = Time taken

Room temperature = 75 °F

Converting to Celsius

$(75-32)\times \frac{5}{9}=23.889\ ^{\circ}C$

Heat required to raise the temperature of water

$Q=mc\Delta T\\\Rightarrow Q=100\times 10^{-6}\times 1000\times 4186\times (100-23.889)\\\Rightarrow Q=31860.0646\ J$

Power

$P=\frac{Q}{t}\\\Rightarrow P=\frac{31860.0646}{8\times 60+55}\\\Rightarrow P=59.55152\ W$

Efficiency of the plate

$\frac{59.5512}{283}\times 100=21.04282\%$

Heat required to raise the temperature of water

$Q=mc\Delta T\\\Rightarrow Q=100\times 10^{-6}\times 784\times 2150\times (56-23.889)\\\Rightarrow Q=5412.63016\ J$

$P=\frac{Q}{t}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{Q}{P}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{5412.63016}{0.2104282\times 283}\\\Rightarrow t=90.9\ s$

Time taken to heat the aceton is 90.9 seconds
