A 20.0 g piece of a metal is heated and place into a calorimeter containing 250.0 g of water initially at 25.0 oC. The final tem
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

Q_{metal} = -6799\,J

Explanation:

By the First Law of Thermodynamics, the piece of metal and water reaches thermal equilibrium when water receives heat from the piece of metal. Then:

Q_{metal} = - Q_{w}

Q_{metal} = m_{w} \cdot c_{p,w}\cdot (T_{1}-T_{2})

Q_{metal} = (250\,g)\cdot \left(4.184\,\frac{J}{g\cdot ^{\textdegree}C} \right)\cdot (25\,^{\textdegree}C - 31.5\,^{\textdegree}C)

Q_{metal} = -6799\,J
