The warmer iron goes down from to 85.0 to x, so this means its Δt equals 85.0 minus x. Solution Key Number One: We start by calling the final, ending temperature 'x.' Keep in mind that BOTH the iron and the water will wind up at the temperature we are calling 'x.' Also, make sure you understand that the 'x' we are using IS NOT the Δt, but the FINAL temperature. This is very, very important.Ĭ) The energy which "flowed" out (of the warmer water) equals the energy which "flowed" in (to the colder water) The warmer metal will cool down (heat energy "flows" out of it).ī) The whole mixture will wind up at the SAME temperature. Forgive me if the points seem obvious:Ī) The colder water will warm up (heat energy "flows" in to it). These values are tabulated and lists of selected values are in most textbooks.Įxample #1: Determine the final temperature when a 25.0 g piece of iron at 85.0 ☌ is placed into 75.0 grams of water at 20.0 ☌.įirst some discussion, then the solution. The water specific heat will remain at 4.184, but the value for the metal will be different. These problems are exactly like mixing two amounts of water, with one small exception: the specific heat values on the two sides of the equation will be different. Go to calculating final temperature when mixing two samples of water Go to calculating final temperature when mixing metal and water: problems 1 - 15 The final temp after warm metal is put into colder water When warm metal is put into colder water, what final temperature results?
