Determine the specific heat of a 213.0 g piece of metal in J/g•°C if the temperature of the metal drops from 70.2 °C to 25.6 °C

when placed in a calorimeter with 250.0 mL of water at an initial temperature of 22.5 °C (specific heat of water is 4.184 J/g•K).

Answer:

0.3415 J/g °C

Explanation:

M1 = 213.0g

c1 = ?

T1 = 70.2°C

T3 = 25.6 °C

T2 = 22.5°C

C2 = 4.186 J/g°C

Vol. of water = 250mL = 250cm³

p (density of water ) = 1g/L

p = mass / volume

mass (m) = density (p) * volume (v)

m = 1 * 250 = 250g

Heat loss by metal = heat gain by water

Q1 = Q2

Mc∇T = Mc∇T

Mc (T1 - T3) = Mc* (T3 - T2)

213 * c * (70.2 - 25.6) = 250 * 4.186 * (25.6 - 22.5)

(213 * 44.6)c = 1046.5 * 3.1

9499c = 3244.15

c = 0.3415 J/g.°C

The specific heat capacity of the metal is 0.3415 J/g °C

What can liquids and gases do that solids cannot?
Aleks [24]

Answer:

What can liquids do that solids cannot?Liquids will flow and fill up any shape of container. Solids like to hold their shape. In the same way that a large solid holds its shape, the atoms inside of a solid are not allowed to move around too much. Atoms and molecules in liquids and gases are bouncing and floating around, free to move where they want.

What can gases do that solids cannot?The atoms and molecules in gases are much more spread out than in solids or liquids. They vibrate and move freely at high speeds. A gas will fill any container, but if the container is not sealed, the gas will escape. Gas can be compressed much more easily than a liquid or solid.

I hope this helps

A quantity of water is heated from 25.0°C to 36.4°C by absorbing 325 J of heat energy. If the specific heat of water is 4.18 J /
Arlecino [84]

Answer:

6,8 g

Explanation:

c = 4.18 J/(g * °C) = 4180 J / (kg * °C)

t_{1} = 25 °C

t_{2} = 36,4 °C

Q = 325 J

The formula is: Q = c * m * (t_{2} - t_{1})

m = \frac{Q}{c * (t_{2} - t_{1} )}

Calculating:

m = 325 / 4180 * (36,4 - 25) ≈ 0,0068 kg = 6,8 g
