CH 8: Specific Heat Problems Worksheet

1. How much energy must be absorbed by 20.0 g of water to increase its


temperature from 283.0 °C to 303.0 °C?

2. When 15.0 g of steam drops in temperature from 275.0 °C to 250.0 °C,


how much heat energy is released?

3. How much energy is required to heat 120.0 g of water from 2.0 °C to 24.0
°C?

4. If 720.0 g of steam at 400.0 °C absorbs 800.0 kJ of heat energy, what will


be its increase in temperature?

5. How much heat (in kJ) is given out when 85.0 g of lead cools from 200.0
°C to 10.0 °C? (Cp of lead = 0.129 J/g °C)

6. If it takes 41.72 joules to heat a piece of gold weighing 18.69 g from 10.0
°C to 27.0 °C, what is the specific heat of the gold?

7. A certain mass of water was heated with 41,840 Joules, raising its
temperature from 22.0 °C to 28.5 °C. Find the mass of water.

Specific heat capacity water : 4.187 J/gC
