So for the first question, without knowing the procedure for this one, i'm just going to go with taking the room temperature, since the bench top and those metal pieces should be the same.
00:17
Or you can take the pieces and put them in a test tube and then insert a thermometer around them so that they're in constant contact with the dry metal pieces can be really.
00:37
Again, challenging without knowing the whole procedure to how to answer that question.
00:42
For the second one, the dry metal pieces, it's important that they're dry.
00:49
So we're only using the specific heat of that substance.
00:59
If any other substance is touching it, if any other substance is mixed in with it, then we have to account for that as well.
01:06
So if the metal had water on it, we have to account for the mass and the specific heat and temperature of the water, because we're dealing with things that are in contact with energy.
01:20
So we have to account for every single substance.
01:28
It would be gaining or losing energy.
01:33
So the next one, how many calories must be added to raise the temperature of 45 grams of water from 25 degrees celsius to 50 degrees celsius? this is a q equals mc delta t problem...
