Name of Instructor 1. Determine the heat is absorbed by a 20g granite boulder as energy from the sun causes its temperature to change from 10°C to 29°C? Express your answer in BTU. Take the specific heat capacity of granite to be 0.1 cal/g °C. Given: m = 20g ; Ti = 10°C ; Tf = 29°C ; Cp = 0.1 cal/g °C Required: Q Formula and Solution: Q = mCpΔT = 20g (0.1 cal/g °C) (29 – 10) = 38 cal (1 BTU/252 cal) Q = 0.1508 BTU 2. If a 6.1g coin is heated using 15.0 calories, its temperature rises 17.9°C. Calculate the specific heat capacity of the ring in kJ/kg-K. Given: m = 6.1g ; Q = 15.0 cal ; ΔT = 17.9°C Required: Cp Formula and Solution: Q = mCpΔT = 15 (4.186 J/1 cal) (1 kJ/1000 J) = [6.1 (1000 kg/1 g)] (Cp) (273.16 + 17.9) Cp = 0.0354 kJ/kg-k 3. The temperature of water increases from 20°C to 46.6°C as it absorbs 5650 calories of heat. What is the mass of water? Given: Ti = 20°C ; Tf = 46.6°C ; Q = 5650 cal ; Cp = 4.186 J/g°C Required: m Formula and Solution: Q = mCpΔT 5650 cal (4.186 J/1 cal) = m (4.186) (46.6 – 20) m = 212.41 g 4. The temperature of a sample of iron with a mass of 10.0 g changed from 50.4°C to 25.0°C with the release of 47 calories of heat. What is the specific heat of iron? Given: m = 10.0g ; Ti = 50.4°C ; Tf = 25.0°C ; Q = 47 cal Required: Cp Formula and Solution: Q = m Cp ΔT - 47cal = 10g (Cp) (25 – 50.4) Cp = 0.1850 cal/g°C 5. A 4.50 g coin of aluminum absorbed 54 calories of heat. What was the final temperature of the copper if the initial temperature was 77°F? The specific heat of aluminum is 0.092 cal/g°C. Given: m = 4.50g ; Q = 54 cal ; Ti = 77°F ; Cp = 0.092 cal/g°C Required: Tf °C/100 – 0 = (77 – 32)/212 – 32 Formula and Solution: °C = 25 °C Q = m Cp ΔT 54 cal = 4.50g (0.092) (tf – 25) Tf = 155.43/100 – 0 = °F – 32/(212 – 32) Tf = 311.78 °F 6. When 20kg of water is cooled from 80 °C to 5 °C, how much heat energy is lost? Given: m = 20kg ; Ti = 80 °C ; Tf = 5 °C ; Cpwater = 4.186 J/g°C Required: Q Formula and Solution: Q = m Cp ΔT = 2000g (4.186) (5 – 80) Q = 6279 kJ 7. A 1000g block of lead is heated from 30°C to 95°C. How much energy was required to heat the lead? The specific heat of lead is 0.129 J/g°C. Given: m = 1000g ; Ti = 30 °C ; Tf = 95 °C ; Cp = 0.129 J/g°C Required: Q Formula and Solution: Q = m Cp ΔT = 1000 (0.129) (95 – 30) Q = 8385 J 8. 1 kg chunk of copper is allowed to cool to 212°F. If the copper gave off 231 kJ of energy, what was the initial temperature of the copper? The specific heat of copper is 0.385 J/g°C. Given: m = 1 kg ; Tf = 212 °C ; Cp = 0.385 J/g°C ; Q = 231 kJ Required: Ti Formula and Solution: °C/100 – 0 = 212 – 32/212 – 32 = 100 °C Q = m Cp ΔT – 231 (1000 J/1 kJ) = (1000) (0.385) (100 – Ti) Ti = 700 °C = 700 °C/100 – 0 = °F – 32/212 – 32 Ti = 1292 °F
