Heat Capacity and Calorimetry Practice Test

A coffee-cup calorimeter has a calorimeter constant of $C = 95\ \text{J},\text{^\circC}^{-1}$. During an experiment, the calorimeter’s temperature increases from $24.0^\circ\text{C}$ to $29.0^\circ\text{C}$. What is the heat absorbed by the calorimeter, $q_{\text{cal}}$?

A $50.0\ \text{g}$ sample of an unknown metal is warmed from $20.0^\circ\text{C}$ to $80.0^\circ\text{C}$. The metal’s specific heat capacity is $0.450\ \text{J},\text{g}^{-1},\text{^\circC}^{-1}$. What is the heat absorbed by the metal, $q$?
