Homework Statement
1. Calculate heat lost by the hot water in the calorimeter.
Initial temp: 22.90 C
Finial temp: 23.25 C
Density: 1.00 g/mL
specific heat capacity: 4.18 J/gK
Homework Equations
qmetal=-(qwater+qmetal)
q=m C dT
The Attempt at a Solution
When i use the second equation i end up stuck.
=(mass of water)(4.18)(23.25-22.90)
but he didnt give us a mass he gave us density. So i think I am supposed to use the first eqauation, but i don't know where to start with that one. how would i solve this problem with the first equation? Or are the two equations basically the same thing?
