A geyser heats water flowing at the rate of 3.0L per minute from 27° C to 77° C . If the geyser operates on a gas burner , what is the rate of consumption of the fuel if it's heat of combustion is 4.0 × 10⁴ J/g?

Explanation:
Water is flowing at a rate of 3.0 litre/min.
The geyser heats the water, raising the temperature from 27°C to 77°C.
Initial temperature, T1 = 27°C
Final temperature, T2 = 77°C
∴Rise in temperature, ΔT = T2 – T1
= 77 – 27 = 50°C
Heat of combustion = 4 × 104 J/g
Specific heat of water, c = 4.2 J g–1 °C–1
Mass of flowing water, m = 3.0 litre/min = 3000 g/min
Total heat used, ΔQ = mc ΔT
= 3000 × 4.2 × 50
= 6.3 × 105 J/min
∴ Rate of consumption = 6.3 × 105 / (4 × 104) = 15.75 g/min
