Solutions

Expert Solution

Solution :-

The heat given by metal is absorbed by the water therefore we can set up the equation to calculate the specific heat of metal

Initial temperature of the metal is 100 C

Lets calculate the specific heat of metal for trial 1

Equation

-q metal = q water

-m *s*delta T = m*s*delta T

Where, m=mass, s= specific heat , delta T= temperature change

- 17.9 g*s*(25.6C-100C) = 49.7 g* 4.184 J per gC * 1.6 C

1466 g C *s = 333 J

S= 333 J / 1466 gC

S=0.250 J/gC

Now lets calculate the specific heat for trial 2

-m *s*delta T = m*s*delta T

- 18 g*s*(25.4C-100C) = 50.6 g* 4.184 J per gC * 2.0 C

1341 g C *s = 423.4 J

S= 423.4 J / 1341 g C

S= 0.316 J/gC

Now lets calculate the specific heat for trial 3

-m *s*delta T = m*s*delta T

- 18 g*s*(27.6C-100C) = 50.2 g* 4.184 J per gC * 2.0 C

1303.2 g C * s = 420.1 J

S= 420.1 J / 1303.2 g C

S=0.322 J/gC

Now lets calculate the average specific heat

Average specific heat = [0.250 +0.316+0.322] / 3

                                         = 0.296 J/gC
