9.104 An engineer is using sodium metal as a cooling agent in a design because it has useful thermal properties. Looting up the heat capacity, the engineer finds a value of 28.2 J mol-l °C-l. Carelessly, he wrote this number down without units. As a result, it was later taken as specific heat. (a) What would he the difference between these two values? (b) Would the engineer overestimate the ability of sodium to remove heat from the system or underestimate it because of this error? Be sure to explain your reasoning.
9.85 The figure below shows a "self-cooling" beverage can. The can is equipped with an outer jacket containing sodium carbonate (Na2CO3), which dissolves in water rapidly and endothermically: Na2CO3(s)2Na+(aq)+CO32(aq) H= 67.7 kJ The user adds water to the outer jacket, and the heat absorbed in the chemical reaction chills the drink. The can contains 200 g of drink, the jacket contains 55 g of Na2CO3, and 100 g of water is to be added. If the initial temperatures of the can and the water are both 32°C on a summer day, what is the coldest temperature that the drink can reach? The can itself has a heat capacity of 40 J/C Assume that the Na2CO3 solution and the drink both have the same heat capacity as pure water, 4.184 J g-l C-l, (HINT: Treat this like a calorimetry problem.)
