Duncan knows that it takes 36400 cal of energy to heat a pint of water from room temperature to boiling. However, Duncan has prepared ramen noodles so many times he does not need to measure the water carefully. If he happens to heat 0.600 pint of room-temperature water, how many kilojoules of heat energy will have been absorbed by the water at the moment it begins to boil?

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? (in J)

If 30.5 g of LiBr are dissolved 350.0 g of water at 20.0 °C in an insulated container, a temperature change is observed. The Δ H of solution of LiBr is -48.8 kJ/mol. Assuming that the specific heat of the solution is 4.184 J/(g C) and that no heat is gained or lost by the container, what will be the final temperature of the solution?

Duncan knows that it takes 36400 cal of energy to heat a pint of water from room temperature to boiling. However, Duncan has prepared ramen noodles so many times he does not need to measure the water carefully. If he happens to heat 0.750 pint of room-temperature water, how many kilojoules of heat energy will have been absorbed by the water at the moment it begins to boil?

The molar heat of solution of a substance is found to be +21.38 kJ/mol. The addition of 0.100 mol of this substance to 1.000L of water initially at 40.0 degrees celsius results in a temperature decrease. Assume the specific heat of the resulting solution to be equal to that of pure water. Find the final temperature of the solution (Also assume that the heat capacity of the calorimeter is negligible).

Show work to support your answer to this question. a) In a study of gaseous xenon, a chemist finds that 27.6 J of energy must be added to increase the temperature of 10.7 g of xenon from 22.7° C to 39.9° C.  What is the experimental specific heat value for xenon gas? b) Using the specific heat you calculated for gaseous xenon, how much heat will be required to heat the 10.7 g sample of xenon from 39.9° C to 278.9° C?

The specific heat of substance C is 0.93 J/(g K) and that of substance D is 1.8 J/(g K). You are given an unknown that could be pure substance C, pure substance D, or a homogeneous mixture of C and D. In the lab you determine that it requires 23.3 J of heat energy to raise the temperature of a 25.0 g sample of the unknown by 1.0 K. What conclusions can you make about the identity of your unknown, from this data?

To treat a burn on his hand, a person decides to place an ice cube on the burned skin. The mass of the ice cube is 15.2 g, and its initial temperature is −13.9 ∘C. The water resulting from the melted ice reaches the temperature of his skin, 29.9⁢ ∘C. How much heat is absorbed by the ice cube and resulting water? Assume that all of the water remains in the hand. Constants for water can be found in this table.   Enthalpy of fusion 333.6 J/g 6010.
