You want to determine the heat capacity of an unknown metal sample in order to help identify it. To do this, you decide to perform a coffee cup calorimetry experiment. The steps you performed were as follows: 1. Placed a 30.19 g piece of the metal in a boiling water bath at 98.3 °C 2. After the metal has had enough time to heat up, the hot metal is transferred to a coffee cup calorimeter containing 50.62 g of.water. 3. The initial temperature of the coffee cup water was 23.09 °C and the final temp 38.33 °C.

In an experiment, 26.5 g of metal was heated to 98.0°C and then quickly transferred to 150.0 g of water in a calorimeter. The initial temperature of the water was 22.5°C, and the final temperature after the addition of the metal was 32.5°C. Assume the calorimeter behaves ideally and does not absorb or release heat.

When substances are dissolved in water, they can absorb or release heat. Describe how you would use a calorimeter to determine the amount of heat required or released to when 10 grams of sugar is dissolved in 100 grams of water. Describe how you would calculate the heat absorbed or released by the sugar with the data you collect. (Do no perform any calculations.)
In order to break water into hydrogen and oxygen, water is heated to more than 500°C. Which kind of reaction is this and why? It is exothermic because heat needs to be released by the reactants to form the products. It is endothermic because heat needs to be released by the reactants to form the products It is exothermic because heat needs to be absorbed by the reactants to form the products. It is endothermic because heat needs to be absorbed by the reactants to form the products.
