Question 8

Multiple Choice

A 360-g metal container, insulated on the outside, holds 180.0 g of water in thermal equilibrium at 22.0C22.0 ^ { \circ } \mathrm { C } A 24.0-g ice cube, at the melting point, is dropped into the water, and when thermal equilibrium is reached the temperature is 15.0C15.0 ^ { \circ } \mathrm { C } Assume there is no heat exchange with the surroundings. For water, the specific heat capacity is 4190 J/kgK4190 \mathrm {~J} / \mathrm { kg } \cdot \mathrm { K } and the heat of fusion is 3.34×3.34 \times 105 J/kg10 ^ { 5 } \mathrm {~J} / \mathrm { kg } What is the specific heat capacity of the metal of the container?


A) 3300 J/kqK\mathrm { J } / \mathrm { kq } \cdot \mathrm { K }
B) 1700 J/kqK\mathrm { J } / \mathrm { kq } \cdot \mathrm { K }
C) 970 J/KgK\mathrm { J } / \mathrm { Kg } \cdot \mathrm { K }
D) 2300 J/kgK\mathrm { J } / \mathrm { kg } \cdot \mathrm { K }
E) 2800 J/kgK\mathrm { J } / \mathrm { kg } \cdot \mathrm { K }
