Concept explainers

The flow of energy from one region to another region is referred to as energy transfer. Since energy is quantitative; it must be transferred to a body or a material to work or to heat the system.

Molar Specific Heat

Heat capacity is the amount of heat energy absorbed or released by a chemical substance per the change in temperature of that substance. The change in heat is also called enthalpy. The SI unit of heat capacity is Joules per Kelvin, which is (J K-1)

Thermal Properties of Matter

Thermal energy is described as one of the form of heat energy which flows from one body of higher temperature to the other with the lower temperature when these two bodies are placed in contact to each other. Heat is described as the form of energy which…

Chapter 18, Problem 94P

A thermometer of mass 0.0550 kg and of specific heal 0.837 kJ/kg · K reads 15.0°C. It is then completely immersed in 0.300 kg of water, and it comes to the same final temperature as the water. If the thermometer then reads 44.4°C, what was the temperature of the water before insertion of the thermometer?

Before leaving on a trip to Melbourne Beach, Florida, you measure the pressure inside the tires of your car at a gas station. At – 7.5 C (chilly!), the tire pressure is 206.5 kPa. When you arrive in Florida, you check the tire pressure and find it is now 236.5 kPa. What is the temperature in Melbourne Beach?

A glass flask whose volume is 1000.0 cm3 at 0.0°C is completely filled with mercury at this temperature. When flask and mercury are warmed to 55.0°C, 8.95 cm3 of mercury overflow. If the coefficient of volume expansion of mercury is 18.0 x 105 K-1, compute the coefficient of volume expansion of the glass.

A Styrofoam ice box has a total area of 0.950 m² and walls with an average thickness of 2.50 cm. The box contains ice, water, and canned beverages at 0°C. The inside of the box is kept cold by melting ice. How much ice melts in one day if the ice box is kept in the trunk of a car at 35.0°C?
