constant pressure calorimetry
What is the heat, q, in joules transferred by a chemical reaction to the reservoir of a calorimeter containing 85 g of dilute aqueous solution (c=4.184 J/g·ºC) if the reaction causes the temperature of the reservoir to rise from 22.0 ºC to 25.0 ºC?
1070 J heat = mass x specific heat of water (given) x change in temperature heat = 85 x 4.184 (given) x (25.0∘C−22.0∘C)
Suppose you mix 100.0 g of water at 23.5 oC with 75.0 g of water at 76.8 oC. What will be the final temperature of the mixed water, in oC? Type answer:
46.3
Which statements are true concerning a substance with a high specific heat? (2)
An example substance is water. The substance cools down slowly after heating.
What is the general definition of heat capacity?
The change in heat required to change the temperature of something by one degree Celsius
40.6 °C. The digit after the decimal place is estimated because the markings go to "40"
