Apiece of glass with a mass of 32.50 g specific heat of 0.840 j/g*°c and an initial temperature of 115 °c was dropped into a calorimeter containing 57 g of water (specific heat 4.184 j/g*°c). the final temperature of the glass and water in the calorimeter was 119.2 °c. what was the initial temperature of the water?

39.84°c
79.68°c
119.84°c
139.68°c

Answer : The final temperature of water is,

Solution :

As we know that,  

         .................(1)

where,

= mass of glass = 32.50 g

= mass of water = 57 g

= final temperature  of water and glass =

= initial temperature of water = ?

= initial temperature glass =

= specific heat of water =

= specific heat of glass =

Now put all the given values in equation (1), we get

Therefore, the final temperature of water is,

because of all the things that happen around the us, many people get into arguments which sadly could get physical, but we should actually make a change for that.
