Chapter 9, Problem 44E

The specific heat capacity of silver is $\text{0}{\text{.24 J °C}}^{\text{-1}}{\text{ g}}^{\text{-1}}$ .

1. Calculate the energy required to raise the temperature of $\text{150}\text{.0 g Ag}$ from $\text{273 K}$ to $\text{298 K}$ .
2. Calculate the energy required to raise the temperature of $\text{1}\text{.0 mole}$ of $\text{Ag}$ by $\text{1}\text{.0°C}$ (called the molarheat capacity of silver).
3. It takes $\text{1}\text{.25 kJ}$ of energy to heat a sample of puresilver from $\text{12}\text{.0°C}$ to $\text{15}\text{.2°C}$ . Calculate the mass ofthe sample of silver.
