Answer:
35.5g of sugar
Explanation:
To solve this question we must assume the density of coke = Density of water = 1g/mL
Thus, in a single can of coke, the mass is 355g. Now, the 10% of this coke is sugar. That means the amount of sugar you are consuming is:
355g * (10/100) = 35.5g of sugar
<em>10/100 = 10%</em>
First, in order to calculate the specific heat capacity of the metal in help in identifying it, we must find the heat absorbed by the calorimeter using:
Energy = mass * specific heat capacity * change in temperature
Q = 250 * 1.035 * (11.08 - 10)
Q = 279.45 cal/g
Next, we use the same formula for the metal as the heat absorbed by the calorimeter is equal to the heal released by the metal.
-279.45 = 50 * c * (11.08 - 45) [minus sign added as energy released]
c = 0.165
The specific heat capacity of the metal is 0.165 cal/gC
