Calculate the heat absorbed by the water in a calorimeter when 175 grams of lead cools from 125.0°C to 22.0°C. The specific heat capacity of lead is .01295 J/g°C

Q = 233.42 J

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of lead = 175 g

Initial temperature = 125.0°C

Final temperature = 22.0°C

Specific heat capacity of lead = 0.01295 J/g.°C

Heat absorbed by water = ?

Solution:

Heat  absorbed by water is actually the heat lost by the metal.

Thus, we will calculate the heat lost by metal.

Formula:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = amount of heat absorbed or released

m = mass of given substance

c = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = change in temperature

ΔT = T2 - T1

ΔT = 22.0°C - 125.0°C

ΔT = -103°C

Q = 175 g × 0.01295 J/g.°C×-103°C

Q = -233.42 J

Heat absorbed by the water is 233.42 J.
