Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

If 100 g of aluminum (c = 900 J/kg·K) at 150 °C is placed in 250 g of water (c = 4186 J/kg·K) at 25 °C, determine the final temperature of the system.

💡 Hint: Remember to account for the heat lost by aluminum and the heat gained by water.

Challenge 2 Hard

In a bomb calorimeter, 1 g of ethanol is burned. If the heat capacity of the calorimeter and water combined is 3.5 kJ/K and the temperature rises by 2 K, calculate the heat of combustion.

💡 Hint: Focus on how to apply the heat transfer equation in constant volume conditions.
