Question

110.0 g of iron is heated to 92.7 degrees C and then place in a container of water at 22.3 degrees C. The final temperature of the water and iron is 26.3 C. What is the mass of water in the container, assuming that all the heat lost by the iron is gained by the water.

Expert Solution
Step 1

we are given that 

mass of iron = 110.0g

Tinitial = 92.7°

Tfinal = 22.3°

initial temperature of water = 22.3°C

final temperature of water = 26.3°C

we have to calculate = mass of water

we are also given that

qlost of iron = qgain of water
