- A piece of chromium metal with a mass of 24.50 g is heated in boiling water to 98.3 °C and then dropped into a coffee-cup calorimeter containing 82.3 g of water at 23.4 °C. When thermal equilibrium is reached, the final temperature is 25.7 °C. Calculate the specific heat capacity of chromium. (The specific heat capacity of liquid water is 4.184 J/g ⋅ K.)arrow_forwardA chemical reaction takes place inside a flask submerged in a water bath. The water bath contains 8.80kg of water at 20.5°C . During the reaction 66.3kJ of heat flows out of the flask and into the bath. Calculate the new temperature of the water bath. You can assume the specific heat capacity of water under these conditions is 4.18·J·g−1K−1 . Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits. °Carrow_forwardIn a coffee-cup calorimeter, 120.0 mL of 1.4 M NaOH and 120.0 mL of 1.4 M HCL are mixed. Both solutions were originally at 20.6°C. After the reaction, the final temperature is 30.0°C. Assuming that all the solutions have a density of 1.0 and a specific heat capacity of 4.18 J/°C·g, calculate the enthalpy change for the neutralization of HCL by NaOH .
