A coin with a mass of 39.0 g is in a hot‐water bath at 97.00°C. A calorimeter contains 175 g of water at 10.00°C. The hot coin is quickly moved and immersed in the cool water in the calorimeter. After stirring, the water and coin reach a final temperature of 12.00°C.

Calculate the specific heat of the coin in J/(g x degree C)

a. 0.473

b. 0.387

c. 0.540

d. 0.219

e. 0.442

A bomb calorimeter (C = 147 J/°C) contained 65 g of C4H4O (l) and excess O2 (g). The calorimeter was immersed in a 150. g water bath (Cwater = 4.19 J/g°C) and the calorimeter and the bath were equilibrated at 22.00 °C. The fuel was combusted, and the temperature of the calorimeter and the water bath were monitored independently. After 5 minutes, the calorimeter reached a maximum temperature of 25.04°C. At that time, the water bath had warmed to 22.62...
