Water has a specific heat of 4.186 J/g*C. How much energy would be required to raise the temperature of 10 g of water by 10 C?

Energy(heat) required to raise the temperature of water : 418.6 J

Heat can be calculated using the formula:  

Q = mc∆T  

Q = heat, J  

m = mass, g  

c = specific heat, joules / g ° C  

∆T = temperature difference, ° C / K  

Specific heat of water = 4.186 J/g*C.

∆T(raise the temperature) : 10° C  

mass = 10 g

Heat required :

organisms are more likely to be more preserved in mud than sand because mud is moist and wet, while sand is very dry.
