A volume of 80.0 mL of H2O is initially at room temperature (22.00 ∘C). A chilled steel rod at 2.00 ∘C is placed in the water. I

f the final temperature of the system is 21.30 ∘C , what is the mass of the steel bar? Use the following values: specific heat of water = 4.18 J/(g⋅∘C) specific heat of steel = 0.452 J/(g⋅∘C)

Answer:

The mass of the steel bar is 26.833 grams

Explanation:

<u>Step 1: </u>data given

ΣQ gained = ΣQ lost

Q=m*C*ΔT

with m = mass in grams

with C= specific heat capacity ( in J/(g°C))

with ΔT = change in temperature = T2-T1

Qsteel = Qwater

msteel * Csteel * (T2steel - T1steel) = mwater * Cwater * (T2water - T1water)

Mass of steel = TO BE  DETERMINED

mass of water =⇒ since 1mL = 1g : 80 mL = 80g

Csteel =0.452 J/(g °C

Cwater = 4.18 J/(g °C

initial temperature steel T1 : 2 °C

final temperature steel T2 = 21.3 °C

initial temperature water T1 =22 °C

final temperature water T2 = 21.3 °C

<u>Step 2:</u> Calculate mass of steel

msteel * Csteel * (T2steel - T1steel) = mwater * Cwater * (T2water - T1water)

msteel * 0.452 *(21.3-2) = 80 * 4.18 * (21.3-22)

msteel = (80 * 4.18 * (-0.7)) / (0.452 * 19.3)

msteel = -234.08 / 8.7236

msteel = -26.833 g

Since mass can't be negative we should take the absolute value of it = 26.833g

The mass of the steel bar is 26.833 grams

149.3 g of H2O at 95 ◦C is poured over 412 g Fe at 5 ◦C in an insulated vessel. What is the final temperature? The specific heat
abruzzese [7]
You are correct, but you needn't worry about the signs so much. Just remember that the negative sign is used to denote a loss of energy; since the water is hotter, it will be losing energy (-Q) and the iron will gain energy (Q). Now, we substitute the values:
-149.3 * 4.184 * (T - 95) = 412 * 0.44 * (T - 5)
Solving this equation for T,
T = 74.8 °C

1. Why does light have different effects on various materials?
Debora [2.8K]
Light basically evaporates pigments such as colored paper. Exposed pigment fading is kind of like getting colored paper wet. It will fade and bleed.
