Expert Solution

For trial 1:

Heat energy gained by the water=msdT = 98.5218 g * 4.184J/gC * 2 C = 824.43 J

Heat lost by the metal = msdT =   42.4562 g * smetal * 74.85 C

Calculated Specific heat = smetal = (824.43 J)/( 42.4562 g * 74.85 C) = 0.26 J/gC                        [as heat lost by                                                                                                                                                         metal=heat                                                                                                                                                         gained by                                                                                                                                                         water]

For trial 2:

Heat energy gained by the water=msdT = 97.7186 g* 4.184J/gC * 6.46 C = 2641.2 J

Heat lost by the metal = msdT =   100.8085 g* smetal * 68.25 C

Calculated Specific heat = smetal = (2641.2 J)/( 100.8085 g * 68.25 C) = 0.384 J/gC

Average Specific heat = 0.26 + 0.384/2 = 0.322 J/gC

% error = (0.385-0.322/0.385)   * 100 = 16.4%

For trial 3:

Heat energy gained by the water=msdT = 96.3055 g* 4.184J/gC * 3.52 C = 1418.35 J

Heat lost by the metal = msdT =   53.5064 g* smetal * 27.8417 C

Calculated Specific heat = smetal = (1418.35 J)/( 53.5064 g * 27.8417 C) = 0.952 J/gC

For trial 4:

Heat energy gained by the water=msdT = 97.5216 g* 4.184J/gC * 3.1 C = 1264.89 J

Heat lost by the metal = msdT =   29.015 g* smetal * 27.83 C

Calculated Specific heat = smetal = (1264.89 J)/( 29.015 g * 27.83 C) = 1.566 J/gC

Average Specific heat = 0.952 + 1.566/2 = 1.259 J/gC
