If 31.0 g of milk at a temperature of 4.15°C is added to a 250-g cup of coffee at a temperature 91.0°C, what is the final temperature of the mixture? Assume coffee has a specific heat of 4.19 ✕ 103 J/(kg · K) and milk has a specific heat of 3.93 ✕ 103 J/(kg · K).
A 100 g glass container contains 250 g of water at 15.0 "C. A 70 g piece of unknown material at 100 °C is added to the water in the container.
The final temperature of the mixture is 19.0 °C. What is the specific heat of the unknown material in J/kg "C? (specific heat of water = 4,186 J/kg
"C, specific heat of glass=837.2 J/kg "C)
3.60 g of boiling water at 100.0°C was splashed onto a burn victim’s skin and cooled to 42.9°C on the 37.0°C skin.
How much heat is given up by the water? Specific heat capacity of water is 4.186 J/(g·K).
