How many grams of acetylene must be burned to produce enough heat to raise the temperature of 1.00 gal water by 10.0c if the process is 80.0% efficient? Assume the density of water is 1.00 g/cm3
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.
Microwave ovens convert radiation to energy. A microwave oven uses radiation with a wavelength of 12.5 cm. Assuming that all the energy from the radiation is converted to heat without loss, how many moles of photons are required to raise the temperature of a cup of water (350.0 g, specific heat =4.18J/gC) from 23.0C to 99.0C?
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 gas is cooled and loses 82 J of heat. The gas contracts as it cools, and work done on the system equal to 29 J is exchanged with the surroundings. What are q, w, and U?
Nitrogen gas is confined in a cylinder with a movable piston under a constant pressure of 9.95 104 Pa. When 695 J of energy in the form of heat is transferred from the gas to the surroundings, its volume decreases by 1.88 L. What is the change in internal energy of the gas?
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 500-g sample of one of the substances listed in Table 7-1 was heated from 25.2C to 55.1C, requiring 133 J to do so. Which substance was it?
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.
How much heat is produced when loo mL of 0.250 M HCl (density, 1.00 g/mL) and 200 mL of 0.150 M NaOH (density, 1.00 g/mL) are mixed?
