Chapter 19, Problem 23EAP
A 50.0 g thermometer is used to measure the temperature of 200 mL of water. The specific heat of the thermometer, which is mostly glass, is 750 J/kg K, and it reads 20.0°C while lying on the table. After being completely immersed in the water, the thermometer's reading stabilizes at 71.2°C. What was the actual water temperature before it was measured?

A 900 g copper rod at 20 degrees celcius has a length of 1.0000 m. The thermal expansion coefficient of copper is 17 x 10^-6 degrees celcius -1. The specific heat capacity is 0.385 kJ/kg degrees celcius.
Question A: The copper is heated to 400 degrees celcius. What is the new length? Give the answer in meters and with 4 digits of precision after the decimal.
Question B: The hot copper is then quenched by dunking the entire rod in a bucket with 10 kg of water at 20 degrees celcius. The specific heat capaciy of water is 4.18 kJ/kg degrees celcius. If none of the water turns to steam what is the equilibrium temp of the copper rod and water? Please give the answer in degrees celcius
Question C: You measure the equilbrium temp and find that it is 24 degrees celcius. If the latent heat of vaporization of water is 2,260 kJ/kg, what mass of water turned to steam? Answer in grams
A gas thermometer is used to measure the
temperature of a boiling liquid. The
thermometer is calibrated at the triple point
of water. Where the triple point pressure is
75 kPA and its liquid temperature reads 134
K, at 50 kPa it reads 134 K, and at 25 kPa it
reads 133 K. What is the accurate
temperature of the liquid in Kelvin?
An aluminum can is filled to the brim with a liquid. The can and the liquid are heated so
their temperatures change by the same amount. The can's initial volume at 15 °C is 4.5×10-
4 m3 . The coefficient of volume expansion for aluminum is 69×10-6 °C-1 . When the can
and the liquid are heated to 75 °C, 2.9×10-6 m3 of liquid spills over. What is the coefficient
of volume expansion of the liquid?
