Integrative and Advanced Exercises
95. A British thermal unit (Btu) is defined as the quantity of heat required to change the
temperature of 1 lb of water by
1 F
Assume the specific heat capacity of water to be
independent of temperature. How much heat is required to raise the temperature of the water
in a 40 gal water heater from 48 to
145 F
in (a) Btu; (b) kcal; (c) kJ?
96. What volume of
18 5 C
water must be added, together with a 1.23 kg piece of iron at
68 5 C,
so that the temperature of the water in the insulated -container shown in the figure
remains constant at
25 6 C
?
97. A 7.26 kg shot (as used in the sporting event, the shot put) is dropped from the top of a
building 168 m high. What is the maximum temperature increase that could occur in the
shot? Assume a specific heat capacity of
1 1
0 47 J g C
−−
for the shot. Why would the actual
measured temperature increase likely be less than the calculated value?
98. An alternative approach to bomb calorimetry is to establish the heat capacity of the
calorimeter, exclusive of the water it contains. The heat absorbed by the water and by the rest
of the calorimeter must be calculated separately and then added together. A bomb calorimeter
assembly containing 983.5 g water is calibrated by the combustion of 1.354 g anthracene. The
temperature of the calorimeter rises from 24.87 to
35 63 C  
When 1.053 g citric acid is
burned in the same assembly, but with 968.6 g water, the temperature increases from 25.01 to
27 19 C  

99. The method of Exercise 98 is used in some bomb calorimetry experiments. A 1.148 g sample
of benzoic acid is burned in excess
( )
2
Og
in a bomb immersed in 1181 g of water. The
temperature of the water rises from 24.96 to
30 25 C  
The heat of combustion of benzoic
acid is
26 42 kJ/g
In a second experiment, a 0.895 g powdered coal sample is burned in the
same calorimeter assembly. The temperature of 1162 g of water rises from 24.98 to
29 81 C  
How many metric tons
( )
1metric ton 1000 kg =
of this coal would have to be
burned to release
9
2 15 10 kJ
of heat?
100. A handbook lists two different values for the heat of combustion of hydrogen:
33 88 kcal/g
if
( )
2
H O l
is formed, and
28 67 kcal/g
if
( )
2
H O g
is formed. Explain why these two values
are different, and indicate what property this difference represents. Devise a means of
verifying your conclusions.
The difference is due to the enthalpy of vaporization of water. Less heat is evolved when steam
is formed because some of the heat of combustion is used to vaporize the water. The
difference between these two heats of vaporization is computed first.
This difference should equal the heat of vaporization, that is, the enthalpy change for the
following reaction.
