A piece of tin (specific heat 0.222 J/g°C) with an initial temperature of 80.0°C is placed in 100.0g of water (specific heat of 4.184 J/g°C) with an initial temperature of 30.0°C. If the system reaches a final temperature of 34.0°C, what is the mass of the piece of tin?

164g

603g

1.92g

100.g

The mass of tin is 164 grams

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Specific heat heat of tin = 0.222 J/g°C

The initial temeprature of tin = 80.0 °C

Mass of water = 100.0 grams

The specific heat of water = 4.184 J/g°C

Initial temperature = 30.0 °C

The final temperature = 34.0 °C

Step 2: Calculate the mass of tin

Heat lost = heat gained

Qlost = -Qgained

Qtin = -Qwater

Q = m*c*ΔT

m(tin)*c(tin)*ΔT(tin) = -m(water)*c(water)*ΔT(water)

⇒with m(tin) = the mass of tin = TO BE DETERMINED

⇒with c(tin) = the specific heat of tin = 0.222J/g°C

⇒with ΔT(tin) = the change of temperature of tin = T2 - T1 = 34.0°C - 80.0°C = -46.0°C

⇒with m(water) = the mass of water = 100.0 grams

⇒with c(water) = the specific heat of water = 4.184 J/g°C

⇒with ΔT(water) = the change of temperature of water = T2 - T1 = 34.0° C - 30.0 °C = 4.0 °C

m(tin) * 0.222 J/g°C * -46.0 °C = -100.0g* 4.184 J/g°C * 4.0 °C

m(tin) =  163.9 grams ≈ 164 grams

The mass of tin is 164 grams

plasma is the state of matter where the substance is ionized and has no definite shape or volume. the fact of being ionized makes the substance a good electrical conductor.
