A 32.5 g cube of aluminum initially at 45.8 °C is submerged into 105.3 g of water at 15.4 °C. What is the final temperature of b

Answer:

T = 17.26 ^oC

Explanation:

At thermal equilibrium we have heat given by aluminium must be equal to the heat absorbed by the water

so we will have

Q_1 = Q_2

m_1s_1\Delta T_1 = m_2s_2\Delta T_2

so we will have

32.5(900)(45.8 - T) = 105.3(4186)(T - 15.4)

so we have

(45.8 - T) = 15.1(T - 15.4)

so we have

16.1 T = 277.87

T = 17.26 ^oC

A 75.00 gram sample of an unknown metal initially at 99.0 degrees Celcius is added to 50.00 grams of water initially at 10.79 de
jeyben [28]

Answer:

  c_{e1} = 0.331 J / g ° C

Explanation:

We have a calorimetry exercise where all the heat yielded by one of the components is absorbed by the other.

Heat ceded          Qh = m1 ce1 (T_{h} -T_{f})

Heat absorbed     Qc = m2 ce2 (T_{f} - T₀)

Body 1 is metal and body 2 is water .  Where m are the masses of the two bodies, ce their specific heat and T the temperatures

      Qh = Qc

      m₁ c_{e1} (T_{h}- T_{f}) = m₂  c_{e2} (T_{f} - T₀)

we clear the specific heat of the metal

      c_{e1} = m₂  c_{e2} (T_{f} - T₀) / (m₁ (T_{h}-T_{f}))

     c_{e1}= 50.00 4.184 (20.15 -10.79) / (75.00 (99.0-20.15))

      c_{e1} = 209.2 (9.36) / (75 78.85)

      c_{e1} = 1958.11 / 5913.75

     c_{e1} = 0.331 J / g ° C

Which explains why conduction is unlikely when ice is placed on a freezer shelf? There is no direct contact. The ice is too cold
Ghella [55]

Answer: The ice and shel are at the same temperature.

Explanation: Conduction happens when you have two objects at different temperatures touching each other, in this case, the temperature flows from the hot object to the cold one, until the equilibrium is reached (this means that both objects are at the same temperature). So, in order to conduction to happen, we need a difference in temperature and direct contact. So there are two options of the given that can be the answer: "There is no direct contact" In the sentence says that "the ice is placed on the freezer shelf", so we have direct contact between both objects. "The ice and shelf are at the same temperature" Here both objects are inside of the freezer, so we can expect that both of them are at the same temperature, hence, there is no conduction.
