A 1.19-kg sample of water at 13°C is in a calorimeter. You drop a piece of steel with a mass of 0.31 kg at 224°C into it. After the sizzling subsides, what is the final equilibrium temperature? Make the reasonable assumptions that any steam produced condenses into liquid water during the process of equilibration and that the evaporation and condensation taken together don't affect the outcome, as we'll see later.
Hint
The final equilibrium temperature of water and steel is °C.
If the water is in a glass beaker with a mass of 0.2 kg, which in turn is in a calorimeter, with the beaker at the same temperature as the water, how will this affect the answer? Try answering before doing a detailed calculation.

#19Problem: Let's determine the initial temperature of copper.
A copper cube with a mass of 85 grams is heated in a boiling water bath to a high temp. The cube is removed from the bath and placed on a large block of ice in an isolated container. The ice has a mass of 145 grams and is at a temperature of -12 Celsius. The ice is melted by the heat exchange, assume equilibrium is 0 Celsius.
C ice: 2090 J/Kg C
C copper: 390 J/kg C
Latent heat for melting Ice= 333kJ/kg
A 1.27-kg sample of water at 14.5°C is in a calorimeter. You drop a piece of steel with a mass of 0.3 kg at 201°C into it. After the sizzling subsides, what is the final equilibrium temperature? Make the reasonable assumptions that any steam produced condenses into liquid water during the process of equilibration and that the evaporation and condensation taken together don't affect the outcome, as we'll see later.
Hint
