It takes 200 J of heat to raise the temperature of 24.5 g of zinc from 25.5 $^\circ$C to 46.5 $^\circ$C. What is the molar heat capacity (in J/mol $^\circ$C) of zinc?

Step 1
To do this, we need to know the molar mass of zinc. The molar mass of zinc is 65.38 g/mol. To convert grams to moles, we use the formula: moles = mass (g) / molar mass (g/mol) Given: mass of zinc = 24.5 g molar mass of zinc = 65.38 g/mol moles of zinc = 24.5 g / Show more…

A 13.8 -g piece of zinc was heated to $98.8^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ in boiling water and then dropped into a beaker containing $45.0 \mathrm{g}$ of water at $25.0^{\circ} \mathrm{C} .$ When the water and metal come to thermal equilibrium, the temperature is $27.1^{\circ} \mathrm{C} .$ What is the specific heat capacity of zinc?
The specific heat of a sample of zinc is 0.390 J/g·°C. How many joules of heat are necessary to raise the temperature of a 1.42 kg block of zinc from 25.0 °C to 88.5 °C?
