Which is a device used to measure the heat absorbed or released during a chemical or physical process?
calorimeter
If an iron ball is placed in a calorimeter at 40.0 °C and the water inside the calorimeter is 40.0 °C, the heat will
not flow at all since the two are already at thermal equilibrium.
What mass of benzene is cooled from 83.8 °C to 77.1 °C when 167 J of energy is transferred out of the system? (The specific heat of benzene is 1.740 J/g °C).
14.3 g

5603 J.
A piece of aluminum metal at an initial temperature of 97.3°C was placed in a calorimeter containing 49.0g of water at an initial temperature of 22.0°C. The two were allowed to come to thermal equilibrium and the final temperature was 24.1°C. The specific heats of water and aluminum are 4.184 J/g °C and 0.902 J/g °C, respectively. What was the mass of the Al piece that was added?
6.52 g
