Suppose that you have left a 200 mL cup of coffee sitting until it has cooled to 30◦ C, which you find totally unacceptable. Your microwave oven draws 1100W of electrical power when it is running. If it takes 45s for this microwave oven to raise the temperature of the coffee to 60◦ C, what is the efficiency of heating with this oven? You will need to use the fact that 4.2 J of energy is required to raise the temperature of 1.0 mL of coffee by 1.0◦ C.
An uninsulated container holds 3.5 mol of an ideal gas at an initial temperature of 300 K. The gas is compressed by a movable piston, and 500 J of work is done on the gas while being compressed. If the final temperature of the gas is 400 K, how much heat flows in or out of the gas during this process?
A 155 g copper bowl contains 230 g of water, both at 20.0°C. A very hot 300 g copper cylinder is dropped into the water, causing the water to boil, with 4.05 g being converted to steam. The final temperature of the system is 100°C. Neglect energy transfers with the environment. (a) How much energy (in calories) is transferred to the water as heat? 8.6 X kcal (b) How much energy (in calories) is transferred to the bowl? 55 X kcal (c) What is the original temperature of the cylinder? 553.6 X °C Did you use the idea of conservation of energy? That is, did you equate the sum of the energy transfers to zero? For the bowl and cylinder, did you substitute the expression relating an energy transfer, the specific heat, the mass, and the temperature change? For the water, did you use the same expression to get the water to the boiling point? Did you also include an expression for the heat of vaporization? Did you use the given final temperature for each of the three materials?
In testing a new drug, you heat a 0.5-kilogram sample using a hot plate. Assume no energy is lost in the process (i.e. the process is 100% efficient). The corresponding change in temperature and energy readings observed during the heating process are graphed as shown.

You have a spherical heater, outside diameter = 3.40 cm, immersed in a container of water. In order to keep the water in the container heated to a constant temperature of 35.0°C you adjust the temperature of the spherical heater. You reach a steady-state condition when the surface temperature of the spherical heater is at 79.0°C. Assuming the electrical efficiency of the heater is 100.0%, calculate the power required by the heater (i.e., calculate q). Ignore radiation.
