5.51 The specific heat of iron metal is 0.450 J/g-K. How many J of heat are necessary
to raise the temperature of a 1.05- kg block of iron from 25.0 °C to 88.5 °C?
q = C m ΔT
get C from table or from problem (0.450 J / g-K)
Since C and K have the same "size," the ΔT does not require conversion to K.
ΔT = T
– T
Note: (88.5 – 25.0 = 63.5) gives 1 dp and 3 SF for these #s
f
I
m = 1.05 kg ( 1000 g / 1 kg) = 1050 g
4
q = (0.45 J / g-C) (1050 g ) (88.5 °C – 25.0 °C) = 30003.75 J = 3.00 X 10
J (3 SF)
Answer must show size and SF. Note: Question asked for HOW MANY, so a
positive answer is appropriate.
5.59 What is the connection between Hess’s law and the fact that H is a state function?
ΔH is path-independent so any # of steps will give the true ΔH for the overall
process.

Use Hess's Law. Identify a substance unique to only one DATA equation. Focus on
handling that substance in each case.
