A container holds 1.0 g of oxygen at a pressure of 8.0 atm.
a. How much heat is required to increase the temperature by 100°C at constant pressure?
b. How much will the temperature increase if this amount of heat energy is transferred to the gas at constant volume?
A scientist whose scale is broken but who has a working
2.5 kW heating coil and a thermometer decides to improvise
to determine the mass of a block of aluminum she has recently
acquired. She heats the aluminum for 30 s and finds that its
temperature increases from 20C to 35C. What is the mass of the
aluminum?
