200 g of an unknown metal powder at Thot = 72°C are dropped into a negligible heat capacity calorimeter containing 150 g of water at 16°C. The final equilibrium temperature is measured to be 36.6°C.
1. Calculate the specific heat of the metal powder c. c = J/kg-°C 2. Identify the metal from the list below.
Water
Beryllium
Aluminum
Silicon
Iron
Copper
Silver
Gold
Lead
3. Using the data table, calculate the specific heat per mole
Cmolar of each pure substance listed below, along with the specific
heat per mol of your unknown metal found above. Then, divide the
specific heat per mole you obtain by the "gas constant", R = 8.31
J/mol-K, and enter these results in the third column. These numbers
are now dimensionless. This is a way of checking what is called
classical corresponding states: that regardless of the type of
substance, their specific heats per mole depend only on their
state: gas or solid. Of course "real matter" varies from this rule,
but not extraordinarily so.
Substance | C molar (J/mol -degrees C) | C molar/R |
Water | ||
Iron | ||
Copper | ||
