- When 6.54 grams of Zn is placed in 500.0 mL of 1.00 M CuSO4(aq) in a coffee cup calorimeter, it reacts completely to displace copper. The temperature of the solution rises from 20.0˚C to 30.4˚C. Assume the coffee cup itself gains no heat and that the solution has the same density (1.00 g/mL) and specific heat (4.184 J/g˚C) as pure water. (a) How much heat does the solution gain during this reaction?

- A 43.9 g spoon made of pure silver (c = 0.235 J/g C) at 20.1 celcius is used to stir an 8 oz. (240 g) cup of coffee at 9.12 celcius. what is the final temperature of the coffee? Assume that the coffee is an insulated container and the spoon absorbs all of the heat from the coffee, and that the coffee has the same specific heat as water.arrow_forwardExpressing amounts of energy in different energy units is necessary to solve many chemistry problems. For practice, complete the following table.

She heats 19.9 grams of iron to 98.12°C and then drops it into a cup containing 77.7 grams of water at 20.85°C. She measures the final temperature to be 22.83°C. Assuming that all of the heat is transferred to the water, she calculates the specific heat of iron to be J/g°C.arrow_forward
