There is 300 grams of water in the 200-gram calorimeter cup (inner can). Both are at room temperature of 20 degrees Celsius. A 100-gram metal sample with an initial temperature of 90 degrees Celsius is placed in the calorimeter resulting. The resulting final temperature of the system is 30 degrees Celsius. If the calorimeter can has a specific heat of 0.2 cal/g-C degree, determine the specific heat of the metal sample

A coffee-cup calorimeter initially contains 125 g water at 24.2 degrees celsius. Ammonium Nitrate (10.5 g), also at 24.2 degree celsius, is added to the water, and after the ammonium nitrate dissolves, the final temperature is 18.3 degrees celsius.What is the heat of solution of ammonium nitrate in kj/mol? Assume that the specific heat capacity of the solution is 4.18 J/Cg and that no heat is transferred to the surrounds or to the calorimeter.

An insulated aluminum calorimeter vessel of 150 g mass contains 300 g of liquid nitrogen boiling at 77 K. A metal block at an initial temperature of 303 K is dropped into the liquid nitrogen. It boils away 15.8 g of nitrogen in reaching thermal equilibrium. The block is then withdrawn from the nitrogen and quickly transferred to a second insulated copper calorimeter vessel of 200 g mass containing 500 g of water at 30.1 degrees celsius. The block coolds...

SETUP In today’s lab we will measure specific heat using a calorimeter. A calorimeter consist of a small metal cup inside a larger metal container, with a lid.  The cups are thermally separated from each other by means of air and a wooden ring, thus reducing the thermal conduction to a minimum. To keep track of how much water etc. we have, the whole calorimeter will be placed on a digital scale. Make sure to zero the scale before you place...
