A student conducts an experiment to determine the specific heat capacity of an unknown metal. She heats the 103.7g gram metal in boiling water with an initial
temperature of 193.2°C. She then moves the metal to a coffee cup calorimeter
that has 32.4 g of water initially at 6.3°C. Determine the specific heat capacity of
the metal in the final temperature of the water is 31.6°C. The specific heat
capacity of water is 4.184J/gºC. Round your answer to three decimal places.

when the volume of gas is   changed from   717.73 ml   to 852 ml   the temperature will   change   from 315   c to 452   c

    calculation

this is calculated using the charles law formula

that is,   v1/t1 = v2/t2

          v1=?

        t1 = 315 c   into   kelvin = 315 +273 = 588 k

        v2 = 852   ml

        t2 = 425c + 273 =698 k

make v1   the subject of the formula ( by   multiplying both side by t1)

  v1=( v2 xt1) / t2

v1= (852 ml   x 588 k)/ 698 k= 717.73 ml

weight of any object is given by

w = m*g

where m is mass of the object and g is the acceleration due to gravity.

for earth the value of g is 9.8 m/s^2 so

w=117.6 n m=12 g=?

117.6=12g => g=9.8 m/s^2

which is the force of gravity on earth.
