When the temperature of a 20-gram sample of water is increased from 10 deg C to 30 deg C, the heat transferred to the water is obtained by multiplying the mass of water with heat capacity and the temperature change.
The heat capacity of water is 1 cal/g/deg C.
The temperature change is 30−10=20
o
C.
The heat transferred to the water is 20×1×(30−10)=400 cal.
