To treat a burn on his hand, a person decides to place an ice cube on the burned skin. The mass of the ice cube is 12.5 g, and its initial temperature is -12.2 °C. The water resulting from the melted ice reaches the temperature of his skin, 30.5 °C. How much heat is absorbed by the ice cube and resulting water? Assume that all of the water remains in the hand. Constants for water can be found in this table.

A hollow aluminum cylinder 20.0 cm deep has an internal capacity of 2.000 L at 20.0C. It is completely filled with turpentine at 20.0C. The turpentine and the aluminum cylinder are then slowly warmed together to 80.0C. (a) How much turpentine overflows? (b) What is the volume of the turpentine remaining in the cylinder at 80.0C? (c) If the combination with this amount of turpentine is then cooled back to 20.0C, how far below the cylinders rim does the turpentines surface recede?
In 1986, a gargantuan iceberg broke away from the Ross Ice Shelf in Antarctica. It was approximately a rectangle 160 km long, 40.0 km wide, and 250 m thick. (a) What is the mass of this iceberg, given that the density of ice is 917kg/m3 ? (b) How much heat transfer (in joules) is needed to melt it? (c) How many years would it take sunlight alone to melt ice this thick, if the ice absorbs an average of 100W/m2, 12.00 h per day?

An aluminum cup contains 225 g of water and a 40-g copper stirrer, all at 27°C. A 458-g sample of silver at an initial temperature of 90°C is placed in the water. The stirrer is used to stir the mixture gently until it reaches its final equilibrium temperature of 32°C. Calculate the mass of the aluminum cup. g?
0.52 mol of argon gas is admitted to an evacuated 3.00 liter (3.00 × 10-3 m3) container at 20.0°C. The gas then undergoes an isobaric process to a temperature of 260°C. What is the final volume of the gas, in liters? Your answer needs to have 3 significant figures, including the negative sign in your answer if needed. Do not include the positive sign if the answer is positive. No unit is needed in your answer, it is already given in the question statement.

A 0.0477-m³ container is initially evacuated. Then, 7.99 g of water is placed in the container, and, after some time, all of the water evaporates. If the temperature of the water vapor is 391 K, what is its pressure? Number i Units
Many hot-water heating systems have a reservoir tank connected directly to the pipeline, so as to allow for expansion when the water becomes hot. The heating system of a house has 69.2 m of copper pipe whose inside radius is 9.08 x 103 m. When the water and pipe are heated from 20.6 to 78.3 °C, what must be the minimum volume of the reservoir tank to hold the overflow of water? Number i Units
