A 200-g metal container, insulated on the outside, holds 100 g of water in thermal equilibrium at 22.00C.
 
  A 21-g ice cube, at the melting point, is dropped into the water, and when thermal equilibrium is reached the temperature is 15.00C. Assume there is no heat exchange with the surroundings. For water, the specific heat is 4190 J/kg  K and the heat of fusion is 3.34  105 J/kg. The specific heat for the metal is closest to
  A) 3850 J/kg  K.
  B) 2730 J/kg  K.
  C) 4450 J/kg  K.
  D) 4950 J/kg  K.
  E) 5450 J/kg  K.

Question 2

A copper cylinder with a mass of 125 g and temperature of 345C is cooled by dropping it into a glass beaker containing 565 g of water initially at 20.0C.
 
  The mass of the beaker is 50.0 g and the specific heat of the glass is 840 J/kgK. What is the final equilibrium temperature of the system, assuming the cooling takes place very quickly, so that no energy is lost to the air? The specific heat of copper is 385 J/kgK and that of water is 4190 J/kgK.

Alzheimer's disease affects only about 10% of people older than 65 years of age. Most forms of decreased mental function and dementia are caused by disuse (letting the mind get lazy).

Did you know?

Walt Disney helped combat malaria by making an animated film in 1943 called The Winged Scourge. This short film starred the seven dwarfs and taught children that mosquitos transmit malaria, which is a very bad disease. It advocated the killing of mosquitos to stop the disease.

Did you know?

Once thought to have neurofibromatosis, Joseph Merrick (also known as "the elephant man") is now, in retrospect, thought by clinical experts to have had Proteus syndrome. This endocrine disease causes continued and abnormal growth of the bones, muscles, skin, and so on and can become completely debilitating with severe deformities occurring anywhere on the body.

Did you know?

As many as 28% of hospitalized patients requiring mechanical ventilators to help them breathe (for more than 48 hours) will develop ventilator-associated pneumonia. Current therapy involves intravenous antibiotics, but new antibiotics that can be inhaled (and more directly treat the infection) are being developed.
