A calorimeter of mass and specific heat capacity contains some mass of water at . A metal piece of mass at is dropped into the calorimeter. After stirring, the final temperature of the mixture is found to be . Find the mass of water used in the calorimeter.
[specific heat capacity of the metal piece
specific heat capacity of water
[specific heat capacity of the metal piece
specific heat capacity of water
Solution:
Heat energy given by metal piece
Heat energy gained by water
Heat energy gained by calorimeter
By principle of calorimetry
Heat energy given by metal Heat energy gained by water + Heat energy gained by calorimeter
Heat energy gained by water
Heat energy gained by calorimeter
By principle of calorimetry
Heat energy given by metal Heat energy gained by water + Heat energy gained by calorimeter
