A 45-g aluminium spoon(specific heat 0.80 / J/gdegree Celsius) at 24 degree celsius is placed in 180 ml(180 grams) of coffee at

85 degree centigrade and the temperature of the become equal
(a)what is the final temperature when the to become equal? Assume that cofee has the same specific heat as water
(b)the first time a student solved this problem she got an answer of 88 degree Celsius. explain why this is clearly and innocent answer.

Explanation:

a) The amount of heat released by coffee will be absorbed by aluminium spoon.

Thus, heat_{absorbed}=heat_{released}

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

Q=m\times c\times \Delta T=m\times c\times (T_{final}-T_{initial})

Also,

m_1\times c_1\times (T_{final}-T_1)=-[m_2\times c_2\times (T_{final}-T_2)]    ..........(1)

where,

q = heat absorbed or released

m_1 = mass of aluminium = 45 g

m_2 = mass of coffee = 180 g

T_{final} = final temperature = ?

T_1 = temperature of aluminium = 24^oC

T_2 = temperature of coffee = 85^oC

c_1 = specific heat of aluminium = 0.80J/g^oC

c_2 = specific heat of coffee= 4.186 J/g^oC

Putting all the values in equation 1, we get:

45 g\times 0.80J/g^oC\times (T_{final}-24^oC)=-[180 g\times 4.186J/g^oC\times (T_{final}-83^oC)]

T_{final}=80.30^oC

80.30 °C is the final temperature.

b) Energy flows from higher temperature to lower temperature.Whenever two bodies with different energies and temperature come in contact. And the resulting temperature of both bodies will less then the body with high temperature and will be more then the body with lower temperature.

So, is our final temperature of both aluminium and coffee that is 80°C less than initial temperature of coffee and more than the initial temperature of the aluminum.

Solar- the sun is not always shining, for example at night you can't get any energy from the sun
Wind-it's not always windy
Water- there can be drought

The molar mass of H2O is 18.01 g/mol. The molar mass of O2 is 32.00 g/mol. What mass of H2O, ins grams, must react to produce 50
Ivan

Answer:

56.28 g

Explanation:

First change the grams of oxygen to moles.

(50.00 g)/(32.00 g/mol) = 1.5625 mol O₂

You have to use stoichiometry for the next part.  Looking at the equation, you can see that for every 2 moles of H₂O, 1 mole of O₂ is produced.  Convert from moles of O₂ to moles of H₂O using this relation.

(1.5625 mol O₂) × (2 mol H₂O/1 mol O₂) = 3.125 mol H₂O

Now convert moles of H₂O to grams.

(3.125 mol) × (18.01 g/mol) = 56.28125 g

Convert to significant figures.

56.28125 ≈ 56.28
