REORDER QUESTION

1 min • 4 pts

Media Image

Order the process by which the calorimeter is used to measure the specific heat of materials. [Left (step 1) to Right (step 4)]

This temperature is then measured. From this data, you can calculate the specific heat of the unknown substance.

Then, the scientist finds the mass of an unknown substance. That substance is heated, and its initial temperature is measured.

A known mass of water is placed in the inner chamber. the water's initial temperature is measured.

The unknown substance is placed in the water. The substance is allowed to transfer thermal energy to the water until both are at the same temperature.

Media Image

A 2-kg block of which material would require about 450 joules of thermal energy to increase its temperature by 1°C?

Q=m(Tf - Ti)C

Gold

Copper

Lead

Tin

Zinc

Answer explanation

To calculate the thermal energy required, use the formula Q=m(Tf-Ti)C. Tin has a specific heat capacity of 227 J/kg°C, so it would require about 450 joules to increase the temperature of a 2-kg block by 1°C.

MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTION

Media Image

Approximately how much does the temperature of .033 kgs of graphite change when it absorbs 350 J of thermal energy?

Q=m(Tchange)C

0o

100o

5o

15o

Answer explanation

The formula Q=m(Tchange)C is used to calculate the temperature change. Given m=0.033g, Q=350J, and C=710 J/kg°C for graphite, Tchange = 350/(0.033 x 710) = 15°C.
