Imagine that a hypothetical life form is discovered on our moon and transported to Earth. On a hot day, this life form begins to sweat, and it is determined that the heat of vaporization of its sweat is 369 cal/g. The scientist observing the extraterrestrial life form also begins to sweat. The heat of vaporization of the scientist's sweat is 580 cal/g at the skin's surface. If both the extraterrestrial life form and the scientist lose 5.80 x 10° g of sweat over the course of one hour, calculate the heat lost by cach body from the vaporization of sweat. extraterrestrial: cal human scientist: cal

Jazmin and Ty did a chemistry experiment in which they dissolved the ionic compound lithium chloride (LiCl) in water. They observed that after mixing 3.0 g of the ionic compound into 20 mL of water, the temperature dropped from 22 °C to 15 °C. Based on these experimental results, it is likely that all of the following would result in a greater temperature decrease except:
A calorimeter contains 704 mL of water at 24.8°C. A 346 g piece of iron is heated in a Bunsen burner flame, then quickly submerged in the water in the calorimeter. After adding the hot iron, the temperature of the water in the calorimeter rises to a maximum of 41.8°C. Determine the temperature (in °C) to which the piece of iron was heated. Use the following values for your calculations. specific heat of water: 4.184 J/g°C density of water: 1.0 g/mL specific heat of iron: 0.449 J/g°C °C
Which statement describes the effect of adding more energy to a system, assuming a phase change does not occur? O The particles within the system will have less motion, and the temperature will increase. O The particles within the system will have less motion, and the temperature will decrease. O The particles within the system will have greater motion, and the temperature will decrease. O The particles within the system will have greater motion, and the temperature will increase.
If you drop a 150 gram piece of metal that has a temperature of 125 Celsius into 1000 grams of water at 20 Celsius, what best describes what would occur? More heat will be lost by the metal than gained by the water. The temperature of the water will be greater than the amount of heat lost by the metal. The temperature change of the metal will equal the temperature change of the water. The heat lost by the metal will equal the heat gained by the water.

A sample of water is heated from 25 o C to 75 o C. This adds 2.09 X 10 4 J of heat energy into thesystem. What is the mass of the water? Remember, the specific heat of water is 4.18 J/g( o C).
You pour a cup of hot coffee that has a volume of 61.1 mL and is initially 94.4 °C. You place a stainless steel spoon that has a mass of 41.56 g into the coffee until the coffee and spoon are at thermal equilibrium. You record that the temperature of the spoon increases by 16.09 °C. What is the final temperature °C at thermal equilibrium of the coffee and spoon, assuming no heat is lost to the surroundings? Assume the specific heat and density of coffee to be the same as water. The specific heat of the spoon is 0.466 J/g·°C. Report your answer normallly to one decimal place and do not include units.
