A 20.0gcopper ring at0.000°°ähas an inner diameter of.D=2.54000cmAn aluminum sphere at100.0°°ähas a diameter ofd=2.54508cm. The sphere is put on top of the ring (Figure), and the two are allowed to come to thermal equilibrium, with no heat lost to the surroundings. The sphere just passes through the ring at the equilibrium temperature. What is the mass of the sphere?

Short Answer

The mass of the sphere is8.71×10−3kg

Step by step solution

01

Identification of given data

i) The diameter of the ring at0°C is(Dr0)=2.54000 c³¾

ii) The diameter of the ring at100°C is(Dr0)=2.54508 c³¾

iii) Mass of ring,(Mr)=0.0200 k²µ.

iv) Initial temperature,(Ti)100°C

v) Coefficient of linear expansion of aluminum,(αa)=23×10−6/°°ä

vi) Coefficient of linear expansion of copper,(αc)=17×10−6/°C

vii) Specific heat of copper,(Cc)=386J/kgâ‹…K

viiii) Specific heat of aluminum,(Ca)=900J/kgâ‹…K

Significance of specific heat

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

We are given that the diameter of the ring at0°°äisand Dr0the diameter of the sphere at initial temperature isDs0. So, we can find first the final temperature by using two equationsD=Dr01+αcTf andD=Ds0[1+αa(Tf−Ti)]is given as:

Tf=Dr0−Ds0+Ds0αaTiDs0αa−Dr0αc

It is given that the sphere and the ring are at thermal equilibrium.

At equilibrium, the heat absorbed by the ring = the heat released by the sphere,so we write

CcMrTf=CaMs(Ti−Tf)

From this equation, we find the mass of sphere as

Ms=CcMrTfCa(Ti−Tf)

Formula:

The final temperature of the system, Tf=Dr0−Ds0+Ds0αaTiDs0αa−Dr0αc …(¾±)

Here,Tf is the final temperature,Dr0 is the initial diameter of the ring,Ds0 is the initial diameter of the sphere, αaiscoefficient of linear expansion of aluminum, Tiis the initial temperature,αcis the coefficient of linear expansion of copper.

The mass of the sphere is given as: Ms=CcMrTfCa(Ti−Tf) …(¾±¾±)

Here,Msis mass of sphere,data-custom-editor="chemistry" Cc is specific heat capacity of copper, Cais specific heat capacity of aluminum.

Determining the mass of the sphere

If the ring diameter at0.0000CisDr0, then its diameter when ring and sphere are in thermal equilibrium isD=Dr01+αcTfwhereTfis the final temperature andis the coefficient of linear expansion of copper.

Similarly, if the sphere diameter at(Ti=1000C)isDs0, then its diameter at its final temperature isD=Ds0[1+αa(Tf−Ti)].

Then the final temperature using equation (i) is given as:

Tf=2.54000cm−2.54508cm+(2.54508cm)×(23×10−6/°C)×100/°C(2.54508cm)×(23×10−6/°C)−(2.54000cm)×(17×10−6/°C)=773.68415.3734°C=50.38 °C

Then, substituting these values in equation (ii), we can get the mass of the sphere as:

Ms=(386J/kgâ‹…K)×(0.0200kg)×(50.38°C)(900J/kgâ‹…K)(100°C−50.38°C)=388.933644658kg=0.008709 k²µ=8.71×10−3 k²µ

Hence, the value of the mass of the sphere is .8.71×10−3 k²µ
