Transcribed Image Text:thermometer
A sample of brass, which has a specific heat capacity of 0.375 J·g¯.°C¯', is put into a calorimeter (see sketch at right) that
contains 200.0 g of water. The brass sample starts off at 94.1 °C and the temperature of the water starts off at 15.0 °C. When
insulated
container
the temperature of the water stops changing it's 17.0 °C. The pressure remains constant at 1 atm.
