Question

1. A 120 g copper calorimeter cup contains 210 cm3 of water and 25 g of ice, all in thermal equilibrium. A 220 g piece of iron is heated to a high temperature and dropped into the water (assume no water escapes the calorimeter cup). At thermal equilibrium the temperature of the entire mixture is 26 C.

Part A

What is the mass of water before the hot iron is put into the cup?

Express your answer using three significant figures.

Temperature = C

Explanation / Answer

(A) V = 210 cm^3 of water

m_water = 210 g


(B) Q = m Lf

Q = 25 x 333.55 = 8338.75 J Or 8.34 kJ

(C) Q = m c deltaT

Q = [ (25 + 210) (4.186 ) (26) ] + [ 120 x 0.385 x 26]

= 26777.7 J Or 26.8 kJ


(D) from energy conservatiom,

Q = 26.8 kJ

(E) specific heat capacity of iron = 0.450 J / g deg C


26777.7 = 220 x 0.450 x (T - 26)

T - 26 = 296.5 deg C
