Question
You drop a 7 mole piece of zinc, which has been heated to 423 K into 0.101 kg of water at 300 K
You can use equipartition for the zinc. Assume that the system (water+zinc) is completely isolated from the
environment. The specific heat capacity of water is 4.186 J/g K.
What is the change in temperature of the water?
(a) 16.9 K
(b) 175. K
(c) 36.0 K
(d) 50.8 K
(e) 6.85 K
✔100%
Did the entropy of the zinc increase, decrease or stay the same?
(a) Increase
(b) Decrease)
(0) Stay the same
