The power of the kettle was 2.6 kW The kettle took 120 seconds to heat 0.80 kg of water from 18 °C to 100 °C
Calculate the specific heat capacity of water using this information.
Give your answer to 2 significant figures

Cp = 4756 [J/kg*°C]

Explanation:

In order to calculate the specific heat of water, we must use the equation of energy for heat or heat transfer equation.

Q = m*Cp*(T_f - T_i)/t

where:

Q = heat transfer = 2.6 [kW] = 2600[W]

m = mass of the water = 0.8 [kg]

Cp = specific heat of water [J/kg*°C]

T_f  = final temperature of the water = 100 [°C]

T_i = initial temperature of the water = 18 [°C]

t = time = 120 [s]

Now clearing the Cp, we have:

Cp = Q*t/(m*(T_f - T_i))

Now replacing

Cp = (2600*120)/(0.8*(100-18))

Cp = 4756 [J/kg*°C]
