Given:
Ma = 31.1 g, the mass of gold
Ta = 69.3 °C, the initial temperature of gold
Mw = 64.2 g, the mass of water
Tw = 27.8 °C, the initial temperature of water 

Because the container is insulated, no heat is lost to the surroundings.
Let T °C be the final temperature.

From tables, obtain
Ca = 0.129 J/(g-°C), the specific heat of gold
Cw = 4.18 J/(g-°C), the specific heat of water

At equilibrium, heat lost by the gold - heat gained by the water.
Heat lost by the gold is
Qa = Ma*Ca*(T - Ta)
      = (31.1 g)*(0.129 J/(g-°C)(*(69.3 - T °C)- 
      = 4.0119(69.3 - T) j
Heat gained by the water is
Qw = Mw*Cw*(T-Tw)
       = (64.2 g)*(4.18 J/(g-°C))*(T - 27.8 °C)
       = 268.356(T - 27.8)

Equate Qa and Qw.
268.356(T - 27.8) = 4.0119(69.3 - T)
272.3679T = 7738.32
T = 28.41 °C

Answer: 28.4 °C

How many miles of lead are equal to 9.51 x 10^3 g Pb?
Lemur [1.5K]
Molar mass Pb = 207.2 g/mol

1 mole Pb ------------- 207.2
? mole Pb ------------ 9.51 x 10³

moles = 9.51 x 10³ * 1 / 207.2

moles = 9.51 x 10³ / 207.2

= 45.89 moles

hope this helps!
