spe capacity of a metal. A piece of hot metal is dropped onto a weighed quantity of ice. The energy transferred from the metal to the ice can be determined from the amount of ice melted. Suppose you heated a 57.4 g piece of silver to 96.8 °C and then dropped it onto ice. When the metal's temperature had dropped to 0.0 °C, it is found that 3.94 g of ice had melted. What is the specific heat capacity of silver? (The heat of fusion of water is 333 J/g.) Specific heat capacity = J/g. K

A certain chemical reaction releases 269. kJ of heat energy per mole of reactant consumed. Suppose some moles of the reactant are put into a calorimeter (a device for measuring heat flow). It takes 3.21 J of heat energy to raise the temperature of this calorimeter by 1 °C. Now the reaction is run until all the reactant is gone, and the temperature of the calorimeter is found to rise by 5.0 °C. How would you calculate the number of moles of reactant that were consumed? Set the math up. But don't do any of it. Just leave your answer as a math expression. Also, be sure your answer includes all the correct unit symbols. moles consumed = x10 010 X Ś

When a 6.50 g sample of solid sodium hydroxide dissolves in 100.0 g of water in a coffee cup calorimeter, the temperature rises from 21.6 degree C to 37.8 degrees C. The specific heat capacity of water is 4.184 J/(g x degrees C). Calculate the quantity of heat (in kJ) released from the reaction. Assume that the specific heat of the solution is the same as that of pure water.
The heat capacity of an object depends on its mass and its composition. The heat capacity of one gram of a substance is called the Specific Heat. That is , specific heat is the amount of heat required to produce a change of 1ºC in exactly 1 g of substance. Liquid water has one of the highest specific heats known, 1 cal/g ºC or 4.184 J /g ºC . This specific heat, for example, is about 5 times as great as that of aluminum metal. Thus 1 cal of heat will increase the temperature of 1 g of aluminum by 5º C , but it raises the temperature of water by only 1ºC.
A sample of aluminum, initially at 5.0 °C, was placed in 18.0 g of water, initially at 25.0 °C. The final temperature of the water and the metal was 21.0 °C.
