Question

tion 6 of 10 Sapling Learning A hot lump of 113.5 g of an unknown substance initially at 175.4 C is placed in 35.0 mL of water initially at 25.0 C and allowed to reach thermal equilibrium. The final temperature of the s ystem is 86.7 ? What is no heat is lost to the surroundings.

Explanation / Answer

M1 X C1 X Change in T1= M2 X C2 X Change in T2

35 * 4.186* (86.7-25)=113.5 * C2* (175.4-86.7)

Hence C2= 0.89791

Hence the unknown substance is Aluminium.

4.186 is the Specific heat capacity of water

For water, 1 mL= 1 gram
