A sample of an unknown metal with a mass of 17.8 grams is heated in boiling water to a temperature of 98.0°C. The piece of metal is transferred to a sample of water with a mass of 15.0 grams at a temperature of 26.0°C. The metal cools to 30.5°C and the water warms up to 30.5°C. Calculate the specific heat of the metal. Use the table of specific heat values to identify the metal.

Options:

copper

aluminum

lead

silver

iron

Solutions

Expert Solution

Heat lose of metal                  =             Heat gain of water

mct                                    =           mct

17.8*C*(98-30.5)                  =            15*4.184*(30.5-26)

                         c                  =        0.235J/g-c0

that metal is silver .It's heat capacity is 0.235J/g-c0

A student obtained an unknown metal sample that weighed 65.3 g and at a temperature of 99.8oC, he placed it in a calorimeter containing 43.7 g of water at 25.7oC. At equilibrium the temperature of the water and metal was 34.5oC.     Knowing the specific heat of the water to be 4.18 J/goC, what is the specific heat of the metal? [ Hint: S.H.water x mwater x Δt water= S.H.metal x mmetal x Δt metal ]
