2. Two hundred grams of coffee at 200C is added to 400 g of water at 1000C. Assuming that
coffee has the same specific heat with water, which is 4.19 kJ/ 𝑘𝑔. 𝐶°, find the equilibrium
temperature of the mixture.

Part II. Answer the following questions or problems comprehensively and accurately.

1. During daytime at the beach, the sand is hotter than the water in the sea. Which has a
higher specific heat capacity – the sand or the water? Explain.

Sand is a poor conductor of heat so when the Sun warms the sand, the heat is not
distributed evenly, making the surface hot. Also, the specific heat of sand is lower than that
of water so when both are exposed to the same amount of light, the sand at the surface will
have a higher change in temperature. Therefore, water has a higher specific heat capacity than
sand due to the fact that it takes a lot of heat, or energy, to raise the temperature of water one
degree, whereas it takes comparatively little energy to change the temperature of sand by one
degree.

2. An engineer wishes to determine the specific heat of a new metal alloy. A 0. 0150 kg
sample of alloy is heated to 5400C. It is then quickly placed in 0.400 kg of water at 100C,
which is contained in a 0.200 kg aluminum calorimeter cup. The final temperature of the
system is 30.50C. Calculate the specific heat of the alloy.
