A student did an experiment to determine the specific heat capacity of a metal alloy. The student put a sample of the alloy in b

oiling water for several minutes, then quickly transferred the alloy into a calorimeter containing water originally at 25°C. The temperature of the water was monitored over time. The data are given in the graph above.
(a) What is the value of ΔT that the student should use to calculate the value of q, the heat gained by the water?

(b) In terms of what occurs at the particulate level, explain how the temperature of the water increases after the alloy sample is added.

(c) The student claims that thermal equilibrium is reached at time t. Justify the student’s claim. In your justification, include a description of what occurs at the particulate level when the alloy and the water have reached thermal equilibrium.

Answer:

a) ∆T=T1-T2

b) At the particle level the temperature changes are the result of the added energy causing the particles of water to move more vigorously. Either the particles of solid vibrate more vigorously about their fixed positions or the particles of liquid and gas move about their container more rapidly.

c) The state in which two substances in physical contact do not share any heat energy. The temperature of two substances in thermal equilibrium is said to be the same. Also see thermodynamics.

Explanation:

hope that helped good luck!

ELEN [110]
I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is option A. <span>A forward reaction in which adding heat decreases product formation is exothermic, while a forward reaction in which adding heat increases product formation is endothermic. Exothermic would mean that heat is being released by the process while the opposite is called endothermic in which it absorbs heat.</span>
