How many kilograms of charcoal do you need to burn to get 6.8 times 10 ^ 7 joules of energy?

To find the desired mass of burnt charcoal, we apply the formula: Q = qdu * m, whence we express: m = Q / qdu.

Values of variables and constants: Q – required heat energy (Q = 6.8 * 10 ^ 7 J); qд – specific heat of combustion of charcoal (qд = 3.4 * 10 ^ 7 J / kg).

Let’s make a calculation: m = Q / qdu = 6.8 * 10 ^ 7 / (3.4 * 10 ^ 7) = 2 kg.

Answer: It will be necessary to burn 2 kg of charcoal.
