A 400-G Block of Iron At 400C400 ^ { \circ } \mathrm { C }

Question 24

Multiple Choice

A 400-g block of iron at 400C400 ^ { \circ } \mathrm { C } is dropped into a calorimeter (of negligible heat capacity) containing 60 g of water at 30C30 ^ { \circ } \mathrm { C } How much steam is produced? The latent heat of vaporization of water is 22.6×10522.6 \times 10 ^ { 5 } J/kg and its specific heat capacity is 4186 J/KgK\mathrm { J } / \mathrm { Kg } \cdot \mathrm { K } The average specific heat of iron over this temperature range is 560 J/kgK.560 \mathrm {~J} / \mathrm { kg } \cdot \mathrm { K } .


A) 33 g
B) 22 g
C) 42 g
