100. mL of H2O is initially at room temperature (22.0∘C). A chilled steel rod at 2.0∘C is placed in the water. If the final temperature of the system is 21.1 ∘C, what is the mass of the steel bar? Specific heat of water = 4.18 J/g⋅∘C Specific heat of steel = 0.452 J/g⋅∘C Express your answer numerically, in grams, to one significant figure.

Expert Solution

The quantity of heat content lost by water(at higher temperature) is equal to quantity of heat content gained by steel rod(lower temperature).

Qsteel rod = m Cv dT

m= mass of steel rod, = ?

Cv = specific heat of steel rod = 0.452 J/g⋅∘C

dT= differeence of temperatures 2.0C and 21.1C =  19.1C

so Qsteel rod = m x 0.452 J/g⋅∘C x 19.1C -----------------------------------------------------------------1

Qwater = mw Cv dT

mw= mass of water = 100 g ( 100 ml = 100 g) [density of water = 1g/ml]

Cv = specific heat of water = 4.18 J/g⋅∘C

dT= differeence of temperatures for water i.e final temperature - initial temperature,

21.1C - 22.0C

= -0.9C

[initial tempeeature of water is 22.0C and final temperature is 21.1C, so

Qwater  = -(100 g x 4.18 J/g⋅∘C x -0.9C)

= 376.2 J ----------------------------------------------------------------2

heat lost or given out by water , so  Qwater bears negative sign

equalize 1 and 2

m x 0.452 J/g⋅∘C x 19.1C =  376.2 J   

mass of steel rod , m = 376.2 J / 0.452 J/g⋅∘C x 19.1C

= 43.576 g

= 43.6 g (three significant figures) best mass report

= 43 g or 44 g (two signnificant figures) but not best report

to note as an inner point expressing in one significant figure not possible
