What mass of water at 25.0C must be allowed to conic to thermal equilibrium with a 1.85-kg cube of aluminum initially at 1.50 102C to lower the temperature of the aluminum to 65.0C? Assume any water turned to steam subsequently recondenses.
A person taking a reading of the temperature in a freezer in Celsius makes two mistakes: first omitting the negative sign and then thinking the temperature is Fahrenheit. That is, the person reads xC as xF . Oddly enough, the result is the correct Fahrenheit temperature. What is the original Celsius reading? Round your answer to three significant figures.
Because humidity depends only on water's vapor pressure and temperature, are the saturation vapor densities listed in Table 13.5 valid in an atmosphere of helium at a pressure of 1.01105N/m2 , rather than air? Are those values affected by altitude on Earth?
At temperatures of a few hundred kelvins the specific heat capacity of copper approximately follows the empirical formula c=a+T+T2, where a=349J/kgK, =0.107J/kgK2, and =4.58105JkgK. How much heat is needed to raise the temperature of a 2.00-kg piece of copper from 20 to 250 ?

The dimensions of the land do not change.
Some stove tops are smooth ceramic for easy cleaning. If the ceramic is 0.600 cm thick and heat conduction occurs through the same area and at the same rate as computed in Example 1.11, what is the temperature difference across it? Ceramic has the same thermal conductivity as glass and brick.
On a winter day when the air temperature is 0 , the relative humidity is 50%. Outside air comes inside and is heated to a room temperature of 20 . What is the relative humidity of the air inside the room. (Does this problem show why inside air is so dry in winter?)
Compare the rate of heat conduction through a 13.0-cm-thick wall that has an area of 10.0 m2 and a thermal conductivity that of glass wool with the rate of heat conduction through a 0.750-cm-thick window that has an area of 2.00 m2, assuming the same temperature difference across each.
Most materials expand when heated. One notable exception is water between 0 and 4 , which actually decreases in volume with the increase in temperature. Which is greater for water in this temperature region, Cp or Cv ?
