Question

Mass of metal (g) Temperature of metal (boiling water) (degree C) Mass of calorimeter (g) Mass of calorimeter + water (g) Temperature of water in calorimeter (degree C) Maximum temperature of metal and water from graph (degree C) Instructor's approval of graph Temperature change of water, Delta T (degree C) Heat gained by water (J) Temperature change of metal, Delta T (degree C) Specific heat of metal, equation 25.5 (J/g degree C) Average specific beat of metal (J/g degree C) Show calculations for Trial 1 using the correct number of significant figures.

Explanation / Answer

mass of metal=25g

temperature of metal=98.9

mass of water=19.52

max temperature of metal and water=28.2

25 x specific heat ( 28.2 - 98.9 ) =- 1767.5

-70.7xspecific heat=-1767.5
specific heat=25joule/gm^0c
