A piece of titanium metal with a mass of 20.8 g is heated in boiling water to 99.5 C and then dropped into a coffee-cup calorimeter containing 75.0 g of water at 21.7 C. When thermal equilibrium is reached, the final temperature is 24.3 C. Calculate the specific heat capacity of titanium.
A sample of 0.562 g of carbon is burned in oxygen in a bomb calorimeter, producing carbon dioxide. Assume both the reactants and products are under standard state conditions, and that the heat released is directly proportional to the enthalpy of combustion of graphite. The temperature of the calorimeter increases from 26.74 C to 27.93 C. What is the heat capacity of the calorimeter and its contents?
A 5.00-g sample of aluminum pellets (specific heat capacity = 0.89 J/C g) and a 10.00-g sample of iron pellets (specific heat capacity = 0.45 J/C g) are heated to 100.0C. The mixture of hot iron and aluminum is then dropped into 97.3 g water at 22.0C. Calculate the final temperature of the metal and water mixture, assuming no heat loss to the surroundings.
A 150.0-g sample of a metal at75.0C is added to 150.0 g H2O at 15.0C. The temperature of the water rises to 18.3C. Calculate the specific heat capacity of the metal, assuming that all the heat lost by the metal is gained by the water.
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.
9.50 When a 13.0-g sample of NaOH(s) dissolves in 400.0 mL of water in a coffee cup calorimeter, the temperature of the water changes from 22.6°C to 30.7C Assuming that the specific heat capacity of the solution is the same as for water, calculate (a) the heat transfer from system to surroundings and (b) H for the reaction NaOH(s)Na+(aq)+OH(aq)
A 500.0-g sample of an element at 195C is dropped into an ice--water mixture; 109.5 g ice melts and an ice--water mixture remains. Calculate the specific heat of the element. See Exercise 131 for pertinent information.
Ammonium nitrate is an oxidizing agent and can give rise to explosive mixtures. A mixture of 2.00 mol of powdered aluminum and 3.00 mol of ammonium nitrate crystals reacts exothermically yielding nitrogen gas, water vapor, and aluminum oxide. How many grams of the mixture are required to provide 245 kJ of heat? See Appendix C for data.
9.37 A calorimeter contained 75.0 g of water at 16.95°C. A 93.3-g sample of iron at 65.58°C was placed in it, giving a final temperature of 19.68°C for the system. Calculate the heat capacity of the calorimeter. Specific heats are 4.184Jg1C1 for H2O and 0.444Jg1C1 for Fe.
9.100 Two baking sheets are made of different metals. You purchase both and bake a dozen cookies on each sheet at the same time in your oven. You observe that after 9 minutes, the cookies on one sheet are slightly burned on the bottom, whereas those on the other sheet are fine. (You are curious and you vary the conditions so you know the result is not caused by the oven.) (a) How can you use this observation to infer something about the specific heat of the materials in the baking sheets? (b) What is themathematical reasoning (equation) that you need to support your conclusion?
