in an experimental solar house, energy from the Sun is stored in barrels filled with water. In a particular winter stretch of five cloudy days, 6.22 GJ (gigajoules, times 10 to the 9th power J) are needed to maintain the inside of the house at 22.0 degrees Celsius. Assuming that the water in the barrels is at 50.0 degrees Celsius, calculate the volume of water required. (Cwater = 4.18 J/g•K), (Dwater = 1.00 g/mL)
