1. A 32.07 gram sample of vanadium was heated to 75 deg. It was then dumped in which the initial temperature of the water inside was 22.50 deg C. After the metal was allowed to release its heat to the calorimeter's water, 26.30 deg C was read to be the final temperature. What is the mass (g) of the water inside the calorimeter? Specific heat capacity of water and vanadium is 4.184 and 0.4886 J/g-C, respectively.

9.104 An engineer is using sodium metal as a cooling agent in a design because it has useful thermal properties. Looting up the heat capacity, the engineer finds a value of 28.2 J mol-l °C-l. Carelessly, he wrote this number down without units. As a result, it was later taken as specific heat. (a) What would he the difference between these two values? (b) Would the engineer overestimate the ability of sodium to remove heat from the system or underestimate it because of this error? Be sure to explain your reasoning.
In a bomb calorimeter, the reaction vessel is surrounded by water that must be added for each experiment. Since the amount of water is not constant from experiment to experiment, the mass of water must be measured in each case. The heat capacity of the calorimeter is broken down into two parts: the water and the calorimeter components. If a calorimeter contains 1.00 kg water and has a total heat capacity of 10.84 kJ/C, what is the heat capacity of the calorimeter components?
