A 25g block of copper is placed on a 100g piece of ice:

a.) If it the copper looses 77 J as its temperature drops by 8 degrees, what is the specific heat of the copper?

b.) If the copper starts at 300K, and the ice starts at 271 K, what will be the final temperature of the water and copper? (Cice=4.186 J/gK, Lice=334 J/g

c.) if the copper was originally a 10 cm long rod, how much do we expect it to have shrunk due to thermal expansion? (α=17 x 10-6 per K)

You have a block of ice at 32 degrees F, and a block of copper at some other temperature. The blocks have equal mass. Exactly the same amount of heat is added to each block. This causes the ice to melt completely, but not to warm up past 32 degrees F. The copper stays well below its melting point. How much does the copper expand? (Express your answer as a percentage, e.g. "the length of the copper increases by 1%.")...

A 4.2-kg block of ice originally at 263 K is placed in thermal contact with a 13.4-kg block of silver (cAg = 233 J/kg-K) which is initially at 1075 K. The H2O - silver system is insulated so no heat flows into or out of it. 1) At what temperature will the system achieve equilibrium? 2) What will be the phase of the H2O at equilibrium? Solid (ice) Liquid (water) Gas (vapor)

A large block of ice is sitting on a thick copper slab. The bottom surface of the slab is maintained at a temperature of 60.0°C. The upper surface, completely in contact with the ice, is at the temperature of the ice, which is 0°C. The slab is 3.90 cm thick, and has an area of 80.0 cm2. Note that copper has a thermal conductivity of 401 W/(mK), aluminum has a thermal conductivity of 237 W/(mK), and the latent heat of...
