Calculating specific heat capacity
A chemist carefully measures the amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of a 577.0 g sample of a pure substance from 1.7 °C to 12.8 °C. The
experiment shows that 890. J of heat are needed. What can the chemist report for the specific heat capacity of the substance? Be sure your answer has the
correct number of significant digits.

A volume of 1.50 L of argon gas is confined in a cylinder with a movable piston under a constant pressure of 1.22 105 Pa. When 1.25 kJ of energy in the form of heat is transferred from the surroundings to the gas, the internal energy of the gas increases by 1.11 kJ. What is the final volume of argon gas in the cylinder?
Consider the reaction 2HCl(aq)+Ba(OH)2(aq)BaCl2(aq)+2H2O(l)H=118KJ Calculate the heat when 100.0 rnL of 0.500 M HCl is mixed with 300.0 mL of 0.100 M Ba(OH)2 Assuming that the temperature of both solutions was initially 25.0C and that the final mixture has a mass of 400.0 g and a specific heat capacity of 4.18 J/C g, calculate the final temperature of the mixture.
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?
When 1.0 g of fructose, C6H12O6(s), a sugar commonly found in fruits, is burned in oxygen in a bomb calorimeter, the temperature of the calorimeter increases by 1.58 C. If the heat capacity of the calorimeter and its contents is 9.90 kJ/C, what is q for this combustion?
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 sample of benzene, C6H6, weighing 3.51 g was burned in an excess of oxygen in a bomb calorimeter. The temperature of the calorimeter rose from 25.00C to 37.18C. If the heat capacity of the calorimeter and contents was 12.05 kJ/C, what is the value of q for burning 1.00 mol of benzene at constant volume and 25.00C? The reaction is C6H6(l)+152O2(g)6CO2(g)+3H2O(l) Is q equal to U or H?
Define the terms system and surroundings. What does it mean to say that a system and its surroundings are in thermal equilibrium?
Nitric acid, HNO3, can be prepared by the following sequence of reactions: 4NH3(g)+5O2(g)4NO(g)+6H2O(g)2NO(g)+O2(g)2NO2(g)3NO2(g)+H2O(l)2HNO3(l)+NO(g) How much heat is evolved when 1 mol of NH3(g) is converted to HNO3(l)? Assume standard states at 25 C.
The octane number of gasoline is based on a comparison of the gasolines behavior with that of 2,2,4-trimethylpentane, C8H18(), which is arbitrarily assigned an octane number of 100. The standard enthalpy of combustion of this compound is 5456.6 kJ/mol. (a) Write the thermochemical equation for the combustion of 2,2,4-trimethylpentane. (b) Use the standard enthalpies of formation in Appendix G to calculate the standard enthalpy of formation of 2,2,4-trimethylpentane.
