a sample of copper was heated at 275.1 C and placed into 272 g of water at 21.0 C. The temperature of the water rose at 29.7 C. How many grams of copper were in the sample

104.8 g

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Initial temperature of copper (T꜀) = 275.1 °C

Mass of water (Mᵥᵥ) = 272 g

Initial temperature of water (Tᵥᵥ) = 21 °C

Equilibrium temperature (Tₑ) = 29.7 °C

Mass of copper (M꜀) =?

NOTE:

Specific heat capacity of copper (C꜀) = 0.385 J/gºC

Specific heat capacity of water (Cᵥᵥ) = 4.184 J/gºC

Finally, we shall determine the mass of the copper in the sample. This can be obtained as follow:

Heat loss by copper = Heat gained by water

M꜀C꜀(T꜀ – Tₑ) = MᵥᵥCᵥᵥ(Tₑ – Tᵥᵥ)

M꜀ × 0.385 (275.1 – 29.7) = 272 × 4.184(29.7 – 21)

M꜀ × 0.385 × 245.4 = 1138.048 × 8.7

M꜀ × 94.479 = 9901.0176

Divide both side by 94.479

M꜀ = 9901.0176 / 94.479

M꜀ = 104.8 g

Thus, the mass of the copper in the sample is 104.8 g

it forms an anion that has a larger radius. anions have a negative charge and are larger than the original atom.

they all get energy from eating other animals, dead animals to be more precise.

hienas tends to steal pray from other animals. crows and vultures tend to eat dead animals and leftovers.
