Chapter 4, Problem 107QRT
The specific heat capacity of copper is 0.385 J g−1 °C−1, whereas it is 0.128 J g−1 °C−1 for gold. Assume you place 100. g of each metal, originally at 25 °C, in a boiling water bath at 100 °C. If energy is transferred to each metal at the same rate, determine which piece of metal will reach 100 °C first.

After 30 minutes, the 500-mL bottle of water had cooled to the temperature of the refrigerator. An hour later, the 2-L of water had cooled to the same temperature. When asked which sample of water lost the most heat, one student replied that both bottles lost the same amount of heat because they started at the same temperature and finished at the same temperature. A second student thought that the 2-L bottle of water lost more heat because there was more water. A third student believed that the 500-mL bottle of water lost more heat because it cooled more quickly. A fourth student thought that it was not possible to tell because we do not know the initial temperature and the final temperature of the water.
