Question

Transcribed Image Text:In the laboratory a "coffee cup" calorimeter, or constant pressure calorimeter, is frequently used
to determine the specific heat of a solid, or to measure the energy of a solution phase reaction.
A chunk of titanium weighing 19.39 grams and originally at 97.14 °C is dropped into an insulated
cup containing 80.82 grams of water at 23.76 °C.

Metal-
sample
2003 Thomson-Brooks/Cole
Stirring rod
The heat capacity of the calorimeter (sometimes referred to as the calorimeter constant) was
determined in a separate experiment to be 1.81 J/°C.
Using the accepted value for the specific heat of titanium (See the References tool), calculate the
final temperature of the water. Assume that no heat is lost to the surroundings.
Tfinal =
