A \(12.0\;V\)battery-operated bottle warmer heats \(50.0\;g\)of glass, \(2.50 \times {10^2}{\rm{ }}g\)of baby formula, and \(2.00 \times {10^2}\;g\)of aluminium from \({20.0^\circ }C\) to \({90.0^\circ }C\).
(a) How much charge is moved by the battery?
(b) How many electrons per second flow if it takes \(5.00\)min to warm the formula? (Hint: Assume that the specific heat of baby formula is about the same as the specific heat of water.)
