CLASS COPY HEAT Practice Problems Q = m x ∆T x C 1. 5.0 g of copper was heated from 20°C to 80°C. How much energy was used to heat Cu? (Specific heat capacity of Cu is 0.092 cal/g °C) 2. How much heat is absorbed by 20g granite boulder as energy from the sun causes its temperature to change from 10°C to 29°C? (Specific heat capacity of granite is 0.1 cal/gºC) 3. How much heat is released when 30 g of water at 96°C cools to 25°C? The specific heat of water is 1 cal/g°C. 4. If a 3.1g ring is heated using 10.0 calories, its temperature rises 17.9°C. Calculate the specific heat capacity of the ring. 5. The temperature of a sample of water increases from 20°C to 46.6°C as it absorbs 5650 calories of heat. What is the mass of the sample? (Specific heat of water is 1.0 cal/g °C) 6. The temperature of a sample of iron with a mass of 10.0 g changed from 50.4°C to 25.0°C with the release of 47 calories of heat. What is the specific heat of iron? 7. A 4.50 g coin of copper absorbed 54 calories of heat. What was the final temperature of the copper if the initial temperature was 25°C? The specific heat of copper is 0.092 cal/g°C. 8. A 155 g sample of an unknown substance was heated from 25°C to 40°C. In the process, the substance absorbed 569 calories of energy. What is the specific heat of the substance? 9. What is the specific heat of an unknown substance if a 2.50 g sample releases 12 calories as its temperature changes from 25°C to 20°C? ANSWER KEY HEAT Practice Problems Q = m x ∆T x C 1. 5.0 g of copper was heated from 20°C to 80°C. How much energy was used to heat Cu? (Specific heat capacity of Cu is 0.092 cal/g °C) 27.6 cal 2. How much heat is absorbed by 20g granite boulder as energy from the sun causes its temperature to change from 10°C to 29°C? (Specific heat capacity of granite is 0.1 cal/gºC) 38 cal 3. How much heat is released when 30 g of water at 96°C cools to 25°C? The specific heat of water is 1 cal/g°C. 2130 cal (endothermic) 4. If a 3.1g ring is heated using 10.0 calories, its temperature rises 17.9°C. Calculate the specific heat capacity of the ring. 0.18 cal/g °C 5. The temperature of a sample of water increases from 20°C to 46.6°C as it absorbs 5650 calories of heat. What is the mass of the sample? (Specific heat of water is 1.0 cal/g °C) 212g 6. The temperature of a sample of iron with a mass of 10.0 g changed from 50.4°C to 25.0°C with the release of 47 calories of heat. What is the specific heat of iron? 0.185 cal/g° C (endothermic) 7. A 4.50 g coin of copper absorbed 54 calories of heat. What was the final temperature of the copper if the initial temperature was 25°C? The specific heat of copper is 0.092 cal/g°C. 155° C 8.
