Question
find the initial temperature of water, (e), (k), (l)

Transcribed Image Text:a hot metal is placed inside the calorimeter containing water. Inside the calorimeter, the hot
metal releases heat, which in turn is absorbed by the water and the calorimeter. The heat
released by the metal is equal to the heat absorbed by the calorimeter and the water based
on the equation shown:
Heat released (Q) = Heat absorbed (Q)
Heat released by metal = Heat absorbed by the calorinmeter + Heat absorbed by water
Qmetal
Qa + Qqrater
(mretal Cmatal ATmeta)
= (m.a Ca ATa) + (mate Cwatur ATrater)
= mass in grams
C = specific heat of a substance(theoretical)?
AT = change in temperature (Tf-Ti)
