Question

Mass of Fe metal: 100.00g Volume of water in Calorimeter: 150 ml Mass of water in Calorimeter (use 1g per ml): 150g Initial Temperature of metal: 100 degrees C Initial Temperature of water: 20 degrees C Final Temperature (both metal and water): 28 degrees C Determine the heat gained by the water (show your work): Determine the specific heat of the metal (show your work): Determine the atomic weight of your metal: Calculate the percent error for each using the atomic weight (literature) off of the periodic table:

Explanation / Answer

Heat gained by water = mass H2O x spht. H2O x delta T = (150 g)(4.184 J/g C)(Tf - Ti) = (150)(4.184)(100 - 20) = 50,200 J
