Explain how much natural gas will he need to burn

Reference no: EM13649795

A cook wants to heat 1.24 kg of water from 25.0 degrees celsius to 100.0 degrees celsius. If he uses the combustion of natural gas (which is exothermic) to heat the water, how much natural gas will he need to burn? Natural gas produces 49.3 kJ of heat per gram. (For the sake of simplicity, assume that the transfer of heat is 100 % efficient.)
