A calorimeter contains reactants and a substance to absorb the heat absorbed. The initial temperature (before the reaction) of the heat absorbent is measured and then the final temperature (after the reaction) is also measured. The absorbent's specific heat capacity and mass are also known. Given all of this data, the equation:
Q = mcΔT 
To find the heat released.

A student measures the mass of a 6.0 cm3 block of brown sugar to be 10.0 g. What is the density of the brown sugar?
Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

1.67g/cm3

Explanation:

The formula for density is d=\frac{m}{v} . The m variable stands for mass and the v variable stands for volume.

The mass of the brown sugar is 10.0g and the volume is 6.0cm3, so we can plug those values into the equation.

d=\frac{10g}{6cm^{3} }

d=1.67\frac{g}{cm^{3} }

Rounded to 3 significant figures, the density of the block of brown sugar is 1.67 g/cm3. If the mass is in grams and the volume is in cm3, the unit for the final answer is \frac{g}{cm^{3} } (grams per centimetres cubed).

A 62.6-gram piece of heated limestone is placed into 75.0 grams of water at 23.1°C. The limestone and the water come to a final
VMariaS [17]
M₁ = mass of water = 75 g
T₁ = initial temperature of water = 23.1 °C
c₁ = specific heat of water = 4.186 J/g°C

m₂ = mass of limestone = 62.6 g
T₂ = initial temperature of limestone = ?
c₂ = specific heat of limestone = 0.921 J/g°C

T = equilibrium temperature = 51.9 °C
using conservation of heat
Heat lost by limestone = heat gained by water
m₂c₂(T₂ - T) = m₁c₁(T - T₁)
inserting the values
(62.6) (0.921) (T₂ - 51.9) = (75) (4.186) (51.9 - 23.1)
T₂ = 208.73 °C
in three significant figures
T₂ = 209 °C

What process describes the transfer of heat through matter by molecular activity?
DIA [1.3K]
The process that describes the transfer of heat through matter by activity of the molecules would be conduction. This type of heat transfer due to the motion of electrons and ions. within a body. As molecules collide with each energy is transferred and released which cause temperature to rise or drop.<span />
