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?
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.
The addition of 3.15 g of Ba(OH)28H2O to a solution of 1.52 g of NH4SCN in loo g of water in a calorimeter caused the temperature to fall by 3.1 C. Assuming the specific heat of the solution and products is 4.20 J/g C, calculate the approximate amount of heat absorbed by the reaction, which can be represented by the following equation: Ba(OH)28H2O(s)+2NH4SCN(aq)Ba(SCN)2(aq)+2NH3(aq)+10H2O(l)
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? HCl(aq)+NaO(aq)NaCl(aq)+H2O(l)H298=58kJ If both solutions are at the same temperature and the heat capacity of the products is 4.19 J/g C, how much will the temperature increase? What assumption did you make in your calculation?
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?
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?
When a 0.740-g sample of trinitrotoluene (TNT), C7H5N2O6, is burned in a bomb calorimeter, the temperature increases from 23.4 C to 26.9 C. The heat capacity of the calorimeter is 534 J/C, and it contains 675 mL of water. How much heat was produced by the combustion of the TNT sample?
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.
