Question

1. A 2.50 g sample of zinc is heated and then placed in a calorimeter containing 50.0 g of water. The temperature of water increases from 20.00°C to 24.50°C. Given that the specific heat capacity of zinc is 0.390 J/g°C. What was the initial temperature of the zinc metal sample? (At equilibrium, final temperatures of zinc and water are the same.)

Step 1

50 g - Specific heat capacity of zinc (C_Zn) = 0.390 J/g°C - Initial temperature of water (T_initial_water) = 20.00°C - Final temperature of water and zinc (T_final) = 24.50°C - Specific heat capacity of water (C_water) = 4.18 J/g°C - Mass of water (m_water) = 50.0 Show more…
