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.

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?
A piece of aluminum with a mass of 250. g is at an initial temperature of 5.0 C. If 24.1 kJ is supplied to warm the Al, calculate its final temperature. Obtain the specific heat capacity of Al from Table 4.1. Table 4.1 Representative Specific Heat Capacities
Dry ice is solid carbon dioxide; it vaporizes at room temperature and normal pressures to the gas. Suppose you put 21.5 g of dry ice in a vessel fitted with a piston (similar to the one in Figure 6.9 but with the weight replaced by the atmosphere), and it vaporizes completely to the gas, pushing the piston upward until its pressure and temperature equal those of the surrounding atmosphere at 24.0C and 751 mmHg. Calculate the work done by the gas in expanding against the atmosphere. Neglect the volume of the solid carbon dioxide, which is very small in comparison to the volume of the gas phase.
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.
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.
A 250-g sample of water at 20.0C is placed in a freezer that is held at a constant temperature of 20.0C. Considering the water as the system, answer the following questions: a What is the sign of qsys for the water after it is placed in the freezer? b After a few hours, what will be the state of the water? c How will the initial enthalpy for the water compare with the final enthalpy of the water after it has spent several hours in the freezer? d What will the temperature of the water be after several hours in the freezer?
9.86 You make some iced tea by dropping 134 g of ice into 500.0 mL of warm tea in an insulated pitcher. If the tea is initially at 20.0°C and the ice cubes are initially at 0.0°C, how many grams of ice will still be present when the contents of the pitcher reach a final temperature? The tea is mostly water, so assume that it has the same density (1.0 g/mL), molar mass, heat capacity (75.3 J K-1 mol-1), and heat of fusion (6.0 kJ/mol) as pure water. The heat capacity of ice is 37.7 J K-l mol-l.
