- 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.arrow_forwardA 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?arrow_forwardConsider the following specific heats of metals. Metal Specific Heat copper 0.385 J/(gC) magnesium 1.02 J/(gC) Mercury 0.138 J/(gC) Silver 0.237 J/(gC) Four 25-g samples, one of each metal, and four insulated containers with identical water volumes, all start out at room temperature. Now suppose you add exactly the same quantity of heat to each metal sample. Then you place the hot metal samples in different containers of water (that all have the same volume of water). Which of the answers below is true? a The water with the copper will be the hottest. b The water with the magnesium will be the hottest. c The water with the mercury will be the hottest. d The water with the silver will be the hottest. e The temperature of the water will be the same in all the cups.arrow_forward

(1 Btu = 252 cal; see also Table 1.4.)arrow_forward9.97 Suppose that the working fluid inside an industrial refrigerator absorbs 680 J of energy for every gram of material that vaporizes in the evaporator. The refrigerator unit uses this energy flow as part of a cyclic system to keep foods cold. A new pallet of fruit with a mass of 500 kg is placed in the refrigerator. Assume that the specific heat of the fruit is the same as that of pure water because the fruit is mostly water. Describe how you would determine the mass of the working fluid that would have to be evaporated to lower the temperature of the fruit by 15C.
