ENERGY PROBLEMS

A 15.75-G PIECE OF IRON ABSORBS 1086.75 J OF

HEAT ENERGY, AND ITS TEMPERATURE CHANGES
FROM 25° TO 175°. CALCULATE THE SPECIFIC
HEAT CAPACITY OF IRON.
HOW MANY JOULES OF HEAT ARE NEEDED TO
RAISE THE TEMPERATURE OF 10.0 G OF
ALUMINUM FROM 22° TO 55°, IF THE SPECIFIC
HEAT CAPACITY OF ALUMINUM IS 0.90 J/G °C?
TO WHAT TEMPERATURE WILL A 50.0 G OF PIECE
OF GLASS RAISE IF IT ABSORBS 5275 JOULES OF
HEAT AND ITS SPECIFIC HEAT CAPACITY IS 0.50
J/G°C, IF THE GLASS IS AT 20°C?
CALCULATE THE HEAT CAPACITY OF PIECE PF
WOOD IF 1500.0 G OF THE WOOD ABSORBS
6.75x10^4 JOULES OF HEAT,AND ITS
TEMPERATURE CHANGES FROM 32°C TO
57°C.
A 100 G OF 4°C WATER IS HEATED UNTIL ITS
TEMPERATURE IS 37°C . CALCULATE THE AMOUNT OF
HEAT ENERGY NEEDED TO CAUSE THE RISE IN
TEMPERATURE. (USE MOLAR HEAT CAPACITY).
 A 900 JOULES OF HEAT ARE ADDED TO THE SYSTEM
AND 200 JOULES OF WORK IS DONE TO THE SYSTEM.
WHAT IS THE CHANGE IN INTERNAL ENERGY?
 CALCULATE W FOR THE SYSTEM THAT
ABSORBS 260KJ OF HEAT AND FOR WHICH
DE = 157 KJ. IS THE WORK DONE ON THE
SYSTEM?
 Mr. Trask makes a cup of coffee by boiling
250 g of water that is initially at 15° C. How
much heat is needed?
 How much heat is required to raise the
temperature of 462 g of copper from 24.0 o
C to 80.0 o C?
Calculate the final temperature after 30.0 g of a
metal (c =0.950 J/g· ˚C) at 71.3 ˚C is immersed in
155 g of water at 21.3 ˚C.
 Imagine you have 1 kg each of iron, glass, and water,
and that all three samples are at 10°C. Rank the
samples from lowest to highest temperature after 100 J
of energy is added to each sample.
WHEN 100KJ OF WORK IS DONE ON A CLOSED SYSTEM
DURING A PROCESS, THE TOTAL ENERGY OF THE
SYSTEM INCREASES BY 55KJ. CALCULATE HOW MUCH
HEAT IS EITHER ADDED OR REMOVED FROM THE
SYSTEM.
