Question

A chemical reaction takes place inside a flask submerged in a water bath. The water bath contains of water at . During the reaction of heat flows out of the flask and into the bath.

Calculate the new temperature of the water bath. You can assume the specific heat capacity of water under these conditions is . Round your answer to significant digits.

Answer 1

It seems there are some missing values in the question, specifically the initial temperature of the water bath and the specific heat capacity of water. Without these values, it is not possible to calculate the new temperature of the water bath.

However, I can provide you with the formula to calculate the final temperature of the water bath after heat transfer:

Final temperature = Initial temperature + (Heat transferred / (Mass of water × Specific heat capacity of water))

You will need to provide the values for the initial temperature of the water bath, the heat transferred (which is negative since heat flows out of the flask), the mass of water in the water bath, and the specific heat capacity of water.

Once you have those values, you can use the formula to calculate the new temperature of the water bath after the chemical reaction.
