A 25.0 g sample of an alloy was heated to 100.0 oC and dropped into a beaker containing 90 grams of water at 25.32 oC. The temperature of the water rose to a final value of 27.18 oC. Neglecting heat losses to the room and the heat capacity of the beaker itself, what is the specific heat of the alloy

The specific heat of the alloy

Explanation:

Mass of an alloy = 25 gm

Initial temperature = 100°c = 373 K

Mass of water = 90 gm

Initial temperature of water = 25.32 °c = 298.32 K

Final temperature = 27.18 °c = 300.18 K

From energy balance equation

Heat lost by alloy = Heat gain by water

 [ - ] = ( - )

25 × × ( 373 - 300.18 ) = 90 × 4.2 (300.18 - 298.32)

This is the specific heat of the alloy.

african americans demonstrated their newly found freedom by relocating often in search of relatives whom they had been separated from during slavery. others established schools to educate freed people and they built institutions such as churches and political organizations to advocate for their rights.

in chemistry, a solution’s concentration is how much of a dissolvable substance, known as a solute, is mixed with another substance, called the solvent. the standard formula is c = m/v, where c is the concentration, m is the mass of the solute dissolved, and v is the total volume
