A 12.8-gram sample of iron is heated to 98.14°C in a boiling water bath. The hot metal is then immersed in 22.54 grams of water that is initially at 21.34°C. At what temperature will the metal and the water reach thermal equilibrium? The specific heat of iron is 0.449 J/g·°C. The specific heat of water is 4.184 J/g·°C.

Respuesta :

Answer:

The temperature will the metal and the water reach thermal equilibrium is 85.93°C

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of iron = 12.8 gm

Temperature = 98.14°C

Mass of water = 22.54 gm

Temperature = 21.34°C

Specific heat of iron= 0.449 J/g°C

Specific heat of water= 4.184 J/g°C

Let final equilibrium temperature is T

We need to calculate the final temperature

Using formula of energy

[tex]E = mc\delta T[/tex]

For water and for iron at equilibrium

[tex] m_{w}c_{w}\delta T=m_{i}c_{i}\delta T[/tex]

Put the value into the formula

[tex]22.54 \times0.449(T-21.34)=12.8\times4.184(98.14-T)[/tex]

[tex]10.12046(T-21.34)=53.5552(98.14-T)[/tex]

[tex]10.12046T-215.9706164=5255.907328-53.5552T[/tex]

[tex]10.12046T+53.5552T=5255.907328+215.9706164[/tex]

[tex]63.67566T=5471.8779444[/tex]

[tex]T=\dfrac{5471.8779444}{63.67566}[/tex]

[tex]T=85.93^{\circ}C[/tex]

Hence,  The temperature will the metal and the water reach thermal equilibrium is 85.93°C

Answer: The final temperature of the system is 25.75°C

Explanation:

When iron is dipped in water, the amount of heat released by iron will be equal to the amount of heat absorbed by water.

[tex]Heat_{\text{absorbed}}=Heat_{\text{released}}[/tex]

The equation used to calculate heat released or absorbed follows:

[tex]Q=m\times c\times \Delta T=m\times c\times (T_{final}-T_{initial})[/tex]

[tex]m_1\times c_1\times (T_{final}-T_1)=-[m_2\times c_2\times (T_{final}-T_2)][/tex]       ......(1)

where,

q = heat absorbed or released

[tex]m_1[/tex] = mass of iron = 12.8 g

[tex]m_2[/tex] = mass of water = 22.54 g

[tex]T_{final}[/tex] = final temperature = ?°C

[tex]T_1[/tex] = initial temperature of iron = 98.14°C

[tex]T_2[/tex] = initial temperature of water = 21.34°C

[tex]c_1[/tex] = specific heat of iron = 0.449 J/g°C

[tex]c_2[/tex] = specific heat of water= 4.184 J/g°C

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

[tex]12.8\times 0.449\times (T_{final}-98.14)=-[22.54\times 4.184\times (T_{final}-21.34)][/tex]

[tex]T_{final}=25.75^oC[/tex]

Hence, the final temperature of the system is 25.75°C
