Question

a silver ball weighing 50g is removed from a furnace and dropped into a 350g of water at 0 degree celcius. if the equilibrium temperature is 10 degree celcius and the specific heat capacity of platinum is 230Jkg-1 degree celcius-1, what is the temperature of the furnace? neglect the effect of the mass of the calorimeter...

Answer 1

what is the specific heat capacity of silver?

Answer 2

@hanifyana

Answer 3

230 Jkg-1celcius-1

Answer 4

are u there @hanifyana

Answer 5

Do u know that heat lost by the silver ball is equal to the heat gained by the water

Answer 6

yeah..so..?

Answer 7

do u know that Q=ms dt

Answer 8

then?

Answer 9

wait..ms dt stand for what?

Answer 10

so,
heat lost by the ball = heat gained by the water
(50/1000) * 230 * ( x - 10) = (350/1000) * 4200 * ( 10 - 0)

Answer 11

oh Q=ms dt and
