A 150g copper bowl contains 220g of water. Both bowl and water are at 20 degrees C. A very hot 300g copper cylinder is dropped into the water. This causes the water to boil, with 5g being converted to steam, and the final temperature of the entire system is 100 degrees C. a) how much heat is transferred to the water? b) how much to the bowl? c)what is the original temperature of the cylinder?
I get the jist of this problem but what i don't know is what to sub in for the mass of water, do i use 220g? or 215g since 5 is boiled away? Something else i don't get is when it says the energy transferred to the water, does that mean the energy transferred to the liquid water and the steam? or just the liquid?
