Question 1

What does the formula m₁c₁(T₁ - T) = mβ‚‚cβ‚‚(T - Tβ‚‚) represent?

  • The conservation of mass
  • The conservation of heat energy
  • The conservation of momentum

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about how energy is transferred between hot and cold.

Question 2

True or False: In calorimetry, we assume that heat is always lost to the surroundings.

  • True
  • False

πŸ’‘ Hint: Remember the ideal condition we discussed.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A laboratory experiment shows that 500g of iron at 120Β°C is placed into 600g of water at 25Β°C. Calculate the final temperature if the specific heat of iron is 0.45 J/gΒ°C. Assume no heat loss to the surroundings.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Remember to keep track of the energy transferred from iron to water.

Question 2

Consider a system where 250g of a substance (specific heat = 3.0 J/gΒ°C) loses 1000 J of heat. What is the temperature change? Use Q = mcΞ”T.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Make sure to plug in the values correctly and pay attention to the units.
