Question 13 NECO • 2020 • PHYSICS • objective

A calorimeter of heat capacity \(150\ \text{J·K}^{-1}\) contains \(200\) g of water at \(25^{\circ}\text{C}\). A \(50\) g piece of aluminum initially at \(100^{\circ}\text{C}\) is placed into the calorimeter. After the system reaches thermal equilibrium, the final temperature is \(30^{\circ}\text{C}\). Assuming no heat loss to the surroundings, determine the specific heat capacity of aluminum in \(\text{J·g}^{-1}\text{·K}^{-1}\) (to two decimal places).

Answer Options

A. 2.05 J·g⁻¹·K⁻¹
B. 1.75 J·g⁻¹·K⁻¹
Correct Answer C. 1.41 J·g⁻¹·K⁻¹
D. 0.89 J·g⁻¹·K⁻¹
Correct Answer
C
Correct Option:
1.41 J·g⁻¹·K⁻¹
