A 2.50 g sample of zinc is heated, then placed in a calorimeter containing 65.0 g of water. Temperature of water increases from

20.00 oC to 22.50 oC. The specific heat of zinc is 0.390 J/goC. What was the initial temperature of the zinc metal sample? (final temperatures of zinc and water are the same)

Answer:

719.83°C

Explanation:

The heat that the sample of Zinc gives is equal to the heat that water is absorbing. That is:

C(Zn) * m(Zn) * ΔT(Zn) = C(H2O) * m(H2O) * ΔT(H2O)

<em>Where:</em>

<em>C is specific heat (Zn: 0.390J/g°C; H2O: 4.184J/g°C)</em>

<em>m is mass (Zn: 2.50g; H2O: 65.0g)</em>

<em>ΔT (Zn: ?; H2O: (22.5°C - 20.0°C = 2.50°C)</em>

<em />

Replacing:

0.390J/g°C * 2.50g * ΔT(Zn) = 4.184J/g°C * 65.0g * 2.50

ΔT(Zn) = 697.33°C

As final temperature of Zn is 22.50°C, initial temperature is:

Initial temperature: 697.33°C + 22.50°C

719.83°C

a 4.50 g coin of copper absorbed 54 calories of heat. what was the final temperature of the copper if the initial temperature wa
vlada-n [284]

Answer:

Final temperature =  T₂ = 155.43 °C

Explanation:

Specific heat capacity:

It is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one gram of substance by one degree.

Formula:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = amount of heat absorbed or released

m = mass of given substance

c = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = change in temperature

Given data:

Mass of coin = 4.50 g

Heat absorbed = 54 cal

Initial temperature = 25 °C

Specific heat of copper = 0.092 cal/g °C

Final temperature = ?

Solution:

Q = m.c. ΔT

ΔT = T₂ -T₁

Q = m.c. T₂ -T₁

54 cal = 4.50 g × 0.092 cal/g °C ×  T₂ -25  °C

54 cal = 0.414 cal/ °C ×  T₂ -25  °C

54 cal /0.414 cal/ °C =  T₂ -25  °C

130.43 °C  =  T₂ -25 °C

130.43 °C + 25 °C = T₂

155.43 °C = T₂

What is the amount of heat energy absorbed when 36 grams of ice at -20oC is melted to water at 0oC?
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

Q = 1461.6 J

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of ice = 36 g

Initial temperature = -20°C

Final temperature = 0°C

Amount of heat absorbed = ?

Solution:

specific heat capacity of ice is 2.03 j/g.°C

Formula:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = amount of heat absorbed or released

m = mass of given substance

c = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = change in temperature

ΔT = T2 - T1

ΔT =  0°C - (-20°C)

ΔT = 20°C

Q = 36 g ×2.03 j/g.°C×20°C

Q = 1461.6 J

How would having too much sample in the melting point tube most likely affect the melting point measurement? Select the correct
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

2-4 mm height of capillary tube.

Explanation:

Sample should be around 2-4 mm in height.

It should be packed well so that it does not have air packets that caues the lowering of melting point.

If you take greater amount, then there will be needed more heat, resulting a wide range of melting point.
