Using a wood stove, you want to boil 250 grams of water. What mass of wood is required to heat the water from 23 oC to 100 oC given that wood typically has an energy content of 15 kJ/g.
The specific heat of water = 4.184 J/g oC. Assume 100% energy transfer from wood to water. Report the answer in kilojoules to two decimal points.
