You have a 28.2-g sample of a metal heated to 95.2°c. you drop it in a calorimeter with 100. g of water at 25.1°c. the final tem

perature of the water is 31.0°c. assuming no heat loss to the surroundings nor the calorimeter, calculate the heat capacity of the metal.

The heat lost by the metal should be equal to the heat gained by the water. We know that the heat capacity of water is simply 4.186 J / g °C. Therefore:

100 g * 4.186 J / g °C * (31°C – 25.1°C) = 28.2 g * Cp * (95.2°C - 31°C)

<span>Cp = 1.36 J / g °C</span>

What mass of water will change its temperature by 3.0 0C when 525 J of heat is added to it? The specific heat of water is 4.184
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

Mass of water = 41.8 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of water = ?

Change in temperature = 3.0 °C

Specific heat capacity = 4.184 j/g.°C

Heat absorbed = 525 j

Solution:

Formula:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = amount of heat absorbed or released

m = mass of given substance

c = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = change in temperature

ΔT = 3.0°C

Now we will put the values in formula.

525 J = m × 4.184 j/g.°C  × 3.0°C

525 J = m × 12.552 j/g

m =  525 J/ 12.552 j/g

m = 41.8 g
