An insulated Thermos contains 130cm3of hot coffee at80.0°°ä.You put in a12.0gice cube at its melting point to cool the coffee. By how many degrees has your coffee cooled once the ice has melted and equilibrium is reached? Treat the coffee as though it were pure water and neglect energy exchanges with the environment.

Short Answer

Expert verified

The temperature when the ice has melted down and equilibrium is reached is13.5°C

Step by step solution

01

 Step 1: Identification of given data

a) Mass of coffee,mw=130 g(1 g=1 c³¾3)

b) Mass of ice,mI=12 g

c) Initial temperature,Ti=80.0°C

d) Temperature of ice melting is0.0°C

e) Specific heat of ice water,cw=4190 J/°ì²µÂ°C

02

Significance of specific heat

The specific heat capacity is the amount heat required to raise the temperature of unit mass of substance by one degree.

In this process of heat absorption and release, the given mass of the ice is melted down to reach the state of equilibrium at a particular temperature, Using both the given formulas of heat absorption and heat released, we get the required temperature by the body to meet the expectations. Again, by the temperature difference of the found answer, we will get the required value.

Formulae:

The heat energy required by a body, Q=mcΔT …(¾±)

Here,m= mass

c= specific heat capacity

ΔT= change in temperature

Q= required heat energy

The heat energy required by a body, Q=NcmΔT …(¾±¾±)

Where, N=m/M= number of moles

cm= molar specific heat capacity

ΔT= change in temperature

03

Determining the temperature at which equilibrium is reached

Using equations (i) and (ii), we get the heat absorbed by the ice in the whole process of fusion as:

Q1=mIcw(Tf−0°C)+LfmI …(¾±¾±¾±)

Here,Tf is the latent heat of fusion.

Similarly, the heat transferred by the coffee is given using equation (i) as:

Q2=mwcw(Ti−Tf) …(¾±±¹)

To reach the condition of equilibrium, the value of equation (iii) should be equal to equation (iv), so

Q1=Q2

To find the final temperature, the above setting can be written as:

Tf=mwcwTI−LfmI(mI+mw)cw=[130 g×4190 J/°ì²µÂ°C×80 °C−333×103J/g×12 g(12 g+130 g)(4190 J/°ì²µÂ°C)]°C=66.5°C

But, the coffee will cool at the temperature.

TI−Tf=80°C−66.5°C=13.5°C

Hence, the value of the required temperature is13.5°C

Samples A and B are at different initial temperatures when they are placed in a thermally insulated container and allowed to come to thermal equilibrium. Figure a gives their temperatures T versus time t. Sample A has a mass of5.0kg; sample B has a mass of 1.5kg. Figure b is a general plot for the material of sample B. It shows the temperature change ΔTthat the material undergoes when energy is transferred to it as heat Q. The changeΔTis plotted versus the energy Q per unit mass of the material, and the scale of the vertical axis is set by Ts=4.00C.What is the specific heat of sample A?
