9. A researcher sets out to calibrate a solution calorimeter. The researcher first adds a 75.000 mL sample of water to the calorimeter, measuring a temperature of 22.4°C after the water and calorimeter reach thermal equilibrium. The re- searcher then heats a separate 75.00 mL sample of water to 40.1°C and adds this sample to the previous one in the calorimeter. After the water has mixed and a new thermal equilibrium with the calorimeter is reached, a temperature of 27.0°C is measured. What is the heat capacity of the calorimeter?
An insulated container is used to hold 46.2 g of water at 32.5 \deg C. A sample of copper weighing 14.2 g is placed in a dry test tube and heated for 30 minutes in a boiling water bath at 100.0\deg C. The heated test tube is carefully removed from the water bath with laboratory tongs and inclined so that the copper slides into the water in the insulated container. Given that the specific heat of solid copper is 0.385 J/(g-\deg C), calculate the maximum temperature of the water in the insulated container after the copper metal is added.
You want to determine the heat capacity of a piece of ceramic. You place a 94.9 g piece of ceramic, initially at 78.3°C, into a calorimeter containing 358.6 g of water at 21.1°C. The two reach thermal equilibrium at a final temperature of 25.4°C. Determine the heat capacity of the ceramic. The heat capacity of water is 4.18 J/g°C. Please show work
A bomb calorimeter, or a constant volume calorimeter, is a device often used to determine the heat of combustion of fuels and the energy content of foods. In an experiment, a 0.8608 g sample of glutaric acid (C3HgO4) is burned completely in a bomb calorimeter. The calorimeter is surrounded by 1.029x103 g of water. During the combustion the temperature increases from 25.01 to 27.84 °C. The heat capacity of water is 4.184 J gl°c-!. The heat capacity of the calorimeter was determined in a previous experiment to be 839.5 J°C. Assuming that no energy is lost to the surroundings, calculate the molar heat of combustion of glutaric acid based on these data.

Typically, water runs through the baseboard copper tubing and, therefore, fresh hot water is constantly running through the piping. However, consider a pipe where water was allowed to sit in the pipe. The hot water cools as it sits in the pipe. What is the temprature change, (AT), of the water if 187.5 g of water sat in the copper pipe from part A, releasing 2298 J of energy to the pipe? The specific heat of water is 4.184 (J/g).°C.
