A student heats 66.90 grams of silver to 98.61 °C and then drops it into a cup containing 81.04 grams of water at 24.12 °C. She measures the final temperature to be 27.32 °C. The heat capacity of the calorimeter was determined in a separate experiment to be 1.87 J/°C. Assuming that no heat is lost to the surroundings calculate the specific heat of silver.
metal
mass of metal = 66.90 g ,
T1 = 98.61 oC
T2 = 27.32 oC
dT =T2 - T1 = 27.32 -98.61 = -71.29 oC
q = m Cp dT
= 66.90 x Cp x (-71.29 )
water :
mass of water = 81.04 g
T1 = 24.12
T2 = 27.32
dT = 3.2
q = m Cp dT
= 81.04 x 4.184 x 3.2
= 1085 J
heat loss by the metal = heat gain by the water
- 66.90 x Cp x (-71.29 ) = 1085
Cp = 0.228 J / g oC
specific heat of metal = 0.228 J / g oC

A student heats 64.73 g silver to 97.71 °C and carefully lowers it into a cup containing 78.69 g water at 23.26 °C. She measures the final temperature to be 26.46 °C. The heat capacity of the calorimeter (sometimes referred to as the calorimeter constant) was determined in a separate experiment to be 1.76 J/°C. Assuming that there is no heating of the surroundings calculate the specific heat capacity of silver.
