How much fuel should he carry

Reference no: EM13166132

A backpacker wants to carry enough fuel to heat 2.7 of water from 30 to 100.0 . If the fuel he carries produces 36 of heat per gram when it burns, how much fuel should he carry? (For the sake of simplicity, assume that the transfer of heat is 100 efficient.)
