A volume of 75.0 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 21.50 ∘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: 17.78g

Explanation:

Assume there is no heat exchange with the environment, then the amount of heat taken by the steel rod, Q(s), is equal to the amount of heat lost by the water, Q(w), but with opposite sign.

Q(s) = -Q(w)

Remember, Q = mc(ΔΦ)

Where Q = amount of heat

m = mass of steel

c = specific heat capacity of steel

ΔΦ = Initial temperature T1 - Final temperature T2

Q = mc(T1-T2)

Recall, Q(s) = -Q(w). Then,

m(s)*c(s)*(T1s - T2s) = - m(w)*c(w)*(T1w - T2w)

Substituting each values

Note: m(w) = volume of water*density = 75mL*1g/mL = 75g

m(s)*0.452*(21.5-2) = -75*4.18*(21.5-22)

m(s)*8.814 = 156.75

m(s) = 156.75/8.814

m(s) = 17.78g

Therefore, the mass of steel is 17.78g

Answer:

I cant answer B, but I can answer A, and I don't think it is  a scientifically reasonable plan.  

Explanation:

The bag of sand weighs less than the gold statue, and yes the bag of sand seems like it would keep the trap from activating, but you would scientifically have to put something that was the same weight as the gold statue on the pedestal that the statue is on.

nataly862011 [7]
For water you could add oil..ex: cooking oil separates form water because water is heavier than oil.

For Magnesium Sulfate you could add Sodium Carbonate..ex: Sodium Carb reacts to Mg Sulfate adding a darker hue to the liquid and adding a lot of bubbles.

For Sodium Carbonate you could add Sulfuric Acid..ex: Sulfuric Acid would add a reaction to the Sodium Carb that would resembling water boiling
