A7.50-gpiece of iron at 100.0C is dropped into 25.0g of water at 22.0C. Assuming that the heat lost by the iron equals the heat gained by the water,determine thefinal temperature of the iron/watersystem. Assume a heat capacity of water at 4.18 J/g.K and of iron at 0.452J/g.K.
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.
When 50.0 g of 0.200 M NaCl(aq) at 24.1 C is added to 100.0 g of 0.100 M AgNO3(aq) at 24.1 C in a calorimeter, the temperature increases to 25.2 C as AgCl(s) forms. Assuming the specific heat of the solution and products is 4.20 J/g C, calculate the approximate amount of heat in joules produced.
In the “Chemistry in Focus” segment Firewalking: Magic or Science?, it is claimed that one reason people can walk on hot coals is that human tissue is mainly composed of water. Because of this, a large amount of heat must be transferred from the coals to change the temperature of the feet significantly. How much heat must be transferred to 100.0 g of water to change its temperature by 35 °C?
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 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.
A 110.-g sample of copper (specific heat capacity = 0.20 J/C g) is heated to 82.4C and then placed in a container of water at 22.3C. The final temperature of the water and copper is 24.9C. What is the mass of the water in the container, assuming that all the heat lost by the copper is gained by the water?
To make a glass of iced tea, you pour 250 mL of tea, whose temperature is 18.2 C, into a glass containing five ice cubes. Each cube has a mass of 15 g. What quantity of ice will melt, and how much ice will remain floating in the tea? Assume iced tea has a density of 1.0 g/mL and a specific heat capacity of 4.2 J/g K, that energy is transferred only as heat within the system, ice is at 0.0 C, and no energy is transferred between system and surroundings.
A sample of nickel is heated to 99.8C and placed in a coffee-cup calorimeter containing 150.0 g water at 23.5C. After the metal cools, the final temperature of metal and water mixture is 25.0C. If the specific heat capacity of nickel is 0.444 J/C g, what mass of nickel was originally heated? Assume no heat loss to the surroundings.
