Chapter 3, Problem 71E
The temperature in the South Pole during the Antarctic winter is so cold that planes cannot land or take off, effectively leaving the inhabitants of the South Pole isolated for the winter. The average daily temperature at the South Pole in July is ‒59.7 °C. Convert this temperature to degrees Fahrenheit.

Calculate the quantity of heat required to raise the temperature of 20.0 g of water from 19.1 °C to 30.6 °C.
Calculate the final temperature, in degrees Celcius, when 85.0 g of water, initially at 21.7 °C, absorbs 4.41×103 J of heat. °C (do not include the temperature unit in your response as it is already specified)
After sitting on a shelf for a while, a can of soda at a room temperature (69°F)
is placed inside a refrigerator and slowly cools. The temperature of the
refrigerator is 37°F. Newton's Law of Cooling explains that the temperature
of the can of soda will decrease proportionally to the difference between the
temperature of the can of soda and the temperature of the refrigerator, as
given by the formula below:
T = Ta + (To – Ta)e¬kt
the temperature surrounding the object
To = the initial temperature of the object
t = the time in minutes
the temperature of the object after t minutes
k = decay constant
T
The can of soda reaches the temperature of 54°F after 40 minutes. Using
this information, find the value of k, to the nearest thousandth. Use the
resulting equation to determine the Fahrenheit temperature of the can of
soda, to the nearest degree, after 95 minutes.
Enter only the final temperature into the input box.
Dennis obtained a clean, dry stoppered flask. He determined the mass of the flask and stopper to be 32.634 g.He then filled the flask with water and determined the mass of the full stoppered flask to be 59.479 g. Based on the temperature of the water, Dennis found the density of water in the Handbook of Chemistry and Physics to be 0.998730 g/mL. Calculate the volume of the flask.

- Dimensional Analysis is a way of doing numerical "book-keeping" when converting quantities or performing calculations. • When converting quantities from one unit to another, conversion factors are used. Solving with Dimensional Analysis and Multiple Units: If I am in Canada where the price of gas is $1.022 USD·L1, how much will it cost me to fill up my gas tank if I travelled 125 km? • Let's also assume that my car gets an average of 30.0 miles/gallon.arrow_forwardWhen 3.00 kg of water vapor cools to a temperature of 373 K, the value of q = –1950 kJ.
