Chapter 5, Problem 5.58QE

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Heat absorbed by the water has to be determined using the given data.

Concept Introduction:

The temperature change $\left(\Delta T\right)$ taking place when heat $\left(q\right)$ is given to the system depends on mass of the substance $\left(m\right)$ and its specific heat $\left(C_s\right)$.

  $q{\text{ = mC}}_s\Delta T$

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Heat lost by the metal has to be determined using the given data.

(c)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Specific heat of the metal has to be determined using the given data.

Concept Introduction:

Refer to (a).
