<u>Answer:</u> The smallest temperature change is shown by water.

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the heat absorbed or released, we use the equation:

q=mC\times \Delta T      ......(1)

where,

q = heat absorbed = 200.0 J

m = mass of the substance

C = specific heat of substance

\Delta T = change in temperature

As, the same amount of heat is getting absorbed in all the cases. So, the change in temperature will depend on the product of mass and specific heat.

For the given options:

  • <u>Option a:</u>  50.0 g Fe, C_{Fe}=0.449J/g^oC

We are given:

m=50.0g\\C_{Fe}=0.449J/g^oC

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

200.0J=50.0g\times 0.449J/g^oC\times \Delta T\\\\\Delta T=\frac{200}{50\times 0.449}=8.99^oC

Change in temperature = 8.99°C

  • <u>Option b:</u>  50.0 g water, C_{water}=4.18J/g^oC

We are given:

m=50.0g\\C_{water}=4.18J/g^oC

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

200.0J=50.0g\times 4.18J/g^oC\times \Delta T\\\\\Delta T=\frac{200}{50\times 4.18}=0.96^oC

Change in temperature = 0.96°C

  • <u>Option b:</u>  25.0 g Pb, C_{Pb}=0.128J/g^oC

We are given:

m=50.0g\\C_{Pb}=0.128J/g^oC

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

200.0J=25.0g\times 0.128J/g^oC\times \Delta T\\\\\Delta T=\frac{200}{25\times 0.128}=62.5^oC

Change in temperature = 62.5°C

  • <u>Option d:</u>  25.0 g Ag, C_{Ag}=0.235J/g^oC

We are given:

m=25.0g\\C_{Ag}=0.235J/g^oC

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

200.0J=25.0g\times 0.235J/g^oC\times \Delta T\\\\\Delta T=\frac{200}{25\times 0.235}=34.04^oC

Change in temperature = 34.04°C

  • <u>Option e:</u>  25.0 g granite, C_{granite}=0.79J/g^oC

We are given:

m=25.0g\\C_{Fe}=0.79J/g^oC

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

200.0J=25.0g\times 0.79J/g^oC\times \Delta T\\\\\Delta T=\frac{200}{25\times 0.79}=10.13^oC

Change in temperature = 10.13°C

Hence, the smallest temperature change is shown by water.

A. Density of Liquids
morpeh [17]

Answer:

Mass of liquid: 20.421g

Density= 1.0109405940594 g/mL

Explanation:

Mass of liquid

To find mass of liquid you take the mass of beaker + liquid (171.223g) and subtract it from the Mass of beaker (beaker without the water). The difference is the answer.

171.223g - 150.802g = 20.421g

Density

To find density you use the formula Mass/Volume. Take the Volume given, and the mass of the liquid you just found.

20.421mL/20.421g = 1.0109405940594 g/mL
