Answer:</h3>
Initial temperature is 243.59°C
<h3>
Explanation:</h3>
The quantity of heat is calculated by multiplying the mass of a substance by its specific heat capacity and change in temperature.
That is; Q = m×c×ΔT
In this case;
Quantity of heat = 560 J
Mass of the Sample of Zinc = 10 g
Final temperature = 100°C
We are required to determine the initial temperature;
This can be done by replacing the known variables in the formula of finding quantity of heat,
Specific heat capacity, c, of Zinc = 0.39 J/g.°C
Therefore,
560 J = 10 g × 0.39 J/g°C × ΔT
ΔT = 560 J ÷ (3.9 J/°C)
= 143.59°C
But, since the sample of Zinc lost heat then the temperature change will have a negative value.
ΔT = -143.59°C
Then,
ΔT = T(final) - T(initial)
Therefore,
T(initial) = T(final) - ΔT
= 100°C - (-143.59°C)
= 243.59°C
Hence, the initial temperature of zinc sample is 243.59°C
The low temperature outside lowers the volume of the gas according to Charles' law because this law describes how a gas will behave at constant pressure. It shows that the volume of a given mass of a gas is directly proportional to the absolute temperature provided the pressure remains constant. An increase in temperature leads to an increase in volume while a decrease reduces the volume. This is due to the reduction in the distances traveled by the vibrating particles of the gas because of the lost kinetic energy.
