Answer:
Final Temperature = 28.2 oC
Explanation:
Information given;
Mass of Iron = 20.8g
Initial Temperature of Iron = 100C
Mass of water = 55.3g
Initial temperature of water = 25.3 C
The presence of a coffee cup calorimeter hints that there is no heat loss to the surrounding and that the iron and water are at thermal equilibrium.
Thermal equilibrium means that there is no heat transfer going on between the bodies, which simply means that the bodies are at the same temperature.
Hence, both bodies would the same final temperature (T2)
H = M * C * ΔT (For iron)
H = 20.8 * 0.449 * ( 100 - T2)
H = 9.3392 ( 100 - T2)
H = 933.92 - 9.3392T2
H = M * C * ΔT (For water)
H = 55.3 * 4.184 * (T2 - 25.3)
H = 231.3752 (T2 - 25.3)
H = 231.3752T2 - 5853.79
Since they are in thermal equilibrium it means H (Iron) = H (water).
This leads to;
933.92 - 9.3392T2 = 231.3752T2 - 5853.79
231.3752T2 + 9.3392T2 = 5853.79 + 933.92
240.7144 T2 = 6787.71
T2 = 28.2 oC
In order to do this, we have to first know the significant figure rules.
<span>Rule #1: All non-zero digits are significant. (1234)
Rule #2: Zeros in front of a number are not significant. (0.093)
Rule #3: Zeros between non-zero digits are significant. (78309)
Rule #4: Zeros at the end of a number are significant if there is a decimal point in the number. (0.05470)
So by going by the rules, 56.0g has three sig figs, because there is a decimal point.
0.0004m only has one sig fig, according to Rule #2.
1003ml has 4 sig figs, because the zeroes are wedged in the two sig fig numbers.
And lastly, 0.0350s has 3 sig figs because the number after a decimal point counts.

Answer:
Heat deals more with thermal energy whereas temperature deals with molecular kinetic energy.
