\(200\,g\) water is heated from \(40\,^oC\) to \(60\,^oC.\) Ignoring the slight expansion of water, the change in its internal energy is close to ...... \(kJ\) (Given specific heat of water \(=4184\,J/kgK\) )

Pick an option to check your answer.
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(16.7\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Volume of water does not change, no work is done on or by the system \((W=0)\)

According to first law of thermodynamics

\(Q = \Delta U + W\)

For Isochoric process \(Q = \Delta U\)

\(\Delta U = \mu cdT = 2 \times 4184 \times 20 = 16.7\,kJ.\)
