A 50.00 g sample of an unknown metal is heated to 45.00°C. It is then placed in a coffee-cup calorimeter filled with water. The

calorimeter and the water have a combined mass of 250.0 g and an overall specific heat of 1.035 cal/g•°C. The initial temperature of the calorimeter is 10.00°C. The system reaches a final temperature of 11.08°C when the metal is added.

First, in order to calculate the specific heat capacity of the metal in help in identifying it, we must find the heat absorbed by the calorimeter using:
Energy = mass * specific heat capacity * change in temperature
Q = 250 * 1.035 * (11.08 - 10)
Q = 279.45 cal/g

Next, we use the same formula for the metal as the heat absorbed by the calorimeter is equal to the heal released by the metal.

-279.45 = 50 * c * (11.08 - 45) [minus sign added as energy released]
c = 0.165

The specific heat capacity of the metal is 0.165 cal/gC

Answer : The value of \Delta E for this reaction is 36.18 kJ

Explanation :

First law of thermodynamic : It states that the energy can not be created or destroyed, it can only change or transfer from one state to another state.

As per first law of thermodynamic,

\Delta E=q+w

where,

\Delta E = internal energy  of the system

q = heat added or rejected by the system

w = work done

As we are given that:

q = 38.65 kJ

w = -2.47 kJ (system work done on surrounding)

Now put all the given values in the above expression, we get:

\Delta E=38.65kJ+(-2.47kJ)

\Delta E=36.18kJ

Therefore, the value of \Delta E for this reaction is 36.18 kJ
