    This document provides 10 calorimetry problems to solve using the formula for heat energy change. The formula is given as q = m * c * ΔT. Problems 1-5 use calories as the energy unit and the specific heat of water, while problems 6-10 use joules and give the specific heat of water. Students are asked to show work and use proper significant figures.

    CALORIMETRY WORKSHEET #1

    Solve these problems on a separate sheet of paper. You will need the room. Show all work. Include units
    during your setup of the problem and use sig figs as usual.
    For problems the problems below, use the formula to calculate the change in heat energy of one
    substance from the notes.
    Write it here:
    ________q =_________________________________________

    ***Use the energy unit CALORIES for problems 1-5


    The specific heat of water in calories is:_______________ (look it up in notes)
    This specific heat is a defined value and does NOT affect significant digits.
    The specific heat of any other material is a measured value and DOES have and affect significant digits.
    1.

    Calculate the energy needed to raise the temperature of 5.0 grams of water from 25.0C to 32.0C.

    2.

    Calculate the energy needed to raise the temperature of 77.2 grams of water from 23.8C to 35.7C.

    3.

    Calculate the energy lost (released) when 93.2 grams of water goes from 44.3C to 31.2C.

    4.

    Calculate the energy lost when 58.2 grams of copper (specific heat 0.0920 cal/gC) is cooled from
    87.3C to 27.8C.

    5.

    If 525 calories of heat energy are added to (absorbed by) a chunk of gold and the temperature rise from
    21.4C to 37.9C, find the mass (in grams) of the piece of gold. The specific heat of gold is 0.540
    cal/gC. HINT: plug into the formula and solve for the missing mass (in grams).

    ***Use the OTHER energy unit JOULES for problems 6 - 10


    The specific heat of water in Joules is:_________________ (look it up in notes)
    This specific heat is a defined value and does NOT affect significant digits.
    The specific heat of any other material is a measured value and DOES have significant digits.
    6.

    If there are 27.2 grams of water in a beaker with a flame under it, then what energy (in joules) is
    needed to raise the temperature of water from 33.8C to 55.8C?

    7.

    Calculate the energy lost (in joules) when 18.5 grams of water goes from 57.5C to 40.5C.

    8.

    Calculate the energy gained (in joules) by 50.0 grams of iron (specific heat of 0.4494 J/gC) when it is
    heated from 22.3C to 67.3C.

    9.

    Calculate the energy (in joules) lost by 15 grams of platinum (specific heat of 0.1326 J/gC) when the
    temperature drops from 25.6C to - 12.4C.

    10.

    If 250 joules of energy are added to a 37.3 grams piece of silver (specific heat of 0.235 J/gC) at
    23.1C, find the final temperature of the silver after the energy is added.
    HINT: Let X C be the final temperature. Let (X - 23.1 C) be the temperature change. Plug into the
    formula and solve for X.
