What is the temperature in Celsius A copper block is removed
What is the temperature in Celsius A copper block is removed from a 350 degree C oven and dropped into 1.0 kg of water originally at 20 degrees C. When the temperature becomes stable it is 26 degrees C What is the mass of the copper block? (the specific heat of copper is 385 J/kg(C) the specific heat of water is 4192 J/Kg(C))
Solution
3.
Heat gained by water =Heat lost of copper
MwaterCwater(T-T1) =Mcopper*Ccoppwe*(T2-T)
1*4192*(26-20) =Mcopper*385*(350-26)
MCopper=0.2016 kg
