Question

In an experiment, 0.02 kg of a substance is heated in a bathof boiling water until its temperature is approximately 100Celsius. The substance is then placed in an insulated containerthat is holding 0.10 kg of water at 25 Celsius. The finalequilibrium temperature of the mixture is 32 Celsius. The specificheat of substance is.... Please show work! Thanks :) I think it may be 2.15... but I'm not too sure.

Explanation / Answer

Heat lost by substance = Heat gained by water                       M C dt = m c dt ' where M = 0.02 kg           dt =100-32 = 68            m= 0.1 kg           dt ' = 32-25 = 7            c= specific heat of water = 4186 J / kg o C substitue values weget Specific heat of substanceC value
