- An insulated container is used to hold 42.7 g of water at 20.5 Celsius. A sample of copper weighing 9.60 g is placed in a dry test tube and heated for 30 minutes in a boiling water bath at 100.0 Celsius. The heated test tube is carefully removed from the water bath with laboratory tongs and inclined so that the copper slides into the water in the insulated container. Given that the specific heat of solid copper is 0.385 J/(g.Celsius), calculate the maximum temperature of the water in the insulated container after the copper metal is added.arrow_forwardplease dont round along the way to solvingarrow_forwardWhat is the standard enthalpy of formation for a compound?

Please provide your final answer rounded to two decimal places.arrow_forwardA 44.0 g sample of unknown metal at 99.0°C was placed in a constant-pressure calorimeter containing 80.0 g of water at 24.0°C, the final temperature of the system was found to be 28.4°C. Calculate the specific heat of the metal.arrow_forwardHot water heaters often use natural gas (methane) to generate heat. Methane and oxygen react to form carbon monoxide according to the overall equation: 2CH4(g)+3O2(g) = 2CO(g)+4H2O(g) The enthalpy of formation for each compound are as follows: CH4: - 74.6 O2: 0 CO: - 110.5 H2O: - 285.8 Part A: calculate the overall enthalpy change of the reaction. Part B: A typical water heater contains 40.0 gallons of water. After a long vacation, you come home and turn your water heater from "vacation mode" to hot. How many moles of methane must be combusted to heat the water in your water heater from 30.0°C to 48.0°C?
