In the laboratory a "coffee cup" calorimeter, or constant pressure calorimeter, is frequently used to determine the specific heat of a solid, or to measure the energy of a solution phase reaction. Thermometer Stirring rod A student heats 66.89 grams of platinum to 99.25 °C and then drops it into a cup containing 83.90 grams of water at 22.41 °C. She measures the final temperature to be 24.37.°C. The heat capacity of the calorimeter (sometimes referred to as the calorimeter constant) was determined in a separate experiment to be 1.72 J/°C. Water Assuming that no heat is lost to the surroundings calculate the specific heat of platinum. Metal sample Specific Heat (Pt) =| J/g °C. 02003 Thomeo-BrockaCoe
When a 8.47 g sample of sodium iodide, NaI, dissolves in 160.0 g of water in a calorimeter, the temperature rises from 20.5 to 22.5°C. The heat associated with this process is known as the heat of solution. What is qwater for this reaction in kJ (not J) to 2 sig figs?
A coffee cup calorimeter, including that water it contains, has a heat capacity of 425 J/K, and is initially at a temperature of 23.07 C. A 16.9 gram piece of nickel metal, initially at a temperature of 4.0°C is placed in the calorimeter. The final temperature of the calorimeter and the metal is 22.74°C. What is the specific heat of nickel metal (in Jg1 K-1)? 27 O0.44 1.4 O 25 O 145
If a system has 30.5 J of heat added to it, and the system does 75.5 J of work on its surroundings, what is the change in the internal energy of the system, in J?
An unknown silver/gray (92.9-g) piece of metal at 178.0°C is quickly placed to 75.0 mL of water initially at 24.0°C. After a few minutes, both the metal and the water have reached 29.7°C. Calculate the specific heat and the identity of the metal. (Note: Use table 2.1 to find the specific heat of two different metals that is close to your answer and explain how you can confidently determine the metal).
A student is asked to identify an unknown piece of metal. The metal has a mass of 12.34 g. It is placed in a boiling water bath and brought up to 99.98 oC. A coffee-cup calorimeter is set up with 103.25 mL of water (density = 1.00 g/mL and specific heat = 4.184 J/g.oC) at a room temperature of 21.30 oC. The metal is removed from the boiling water and placed in the calorimeter. A final temperature is recorded as 22.32 oC. Find the specific heatcapacity of the unknown metal. (Assume there is no heat loss)
When ethanol burns in oxygen, it forms carbon dioxide and water. If the heat of the combustion reaction is -1237.7kJ/mol, the heat of formation of water is -241.8kJ/mol, and the heat of formation of carbon dioxide is -393.5kJ/mol, what is the heat of formation of ethanol? (Ethanol is C2H5OH). *Do not need to include units in your final answer.* Your answer may be off due to rounding but round to 1 decimal place.
When 6.54 grams of Zn is placed in 500.0 mL of 1.00 M CuSO4(aq) in a coffee cup calorimeter, it reacts completely to displace copper. The temperature of the solution rises from 20.0˚C to 30.4˚C. Assume the coffee cup itself gains no heat and that the solution has the same density (1.00 g/mL) and specific heat (4.184 J/g˚C) as pure water.
