In the laboratory a "coffee cup" calorimeter, or constantpressure calorimeter, is frequently used to determine the specificheat of a solid, or to measure the energy of a solution phasereaction. A chunk of tin weighing 18.99 g and originally at 98.22°C is carefully lowered into an insulated cup containing 79.86 gwater at 22.53 °C. The heat capacity of the calorimeter (sometimesreferred to as the calorimeter constant) was determined in aseparate experiment to be 1.82 J/°C. Using the accepted value forthe specific heat capacity of tin (See the References tool),calculate the final temperature of the water. Assume that there isno heating of the surroundings.
Tfinal = °C.
