A 35.5 g piece of hot metal was added to water at 23.7 ˚C in a calorimeter. If the temperature of the water increased to 43.2 ˚C, how much energy (q) was transferred to the water?
How much heat was transferred from the metal?
How much heat was transferred from the metal?
Wyatt AtkinsWe don't know....
We (i) do not know the specific heat of water, at least the question did not quote this term, and (ii) we do not know the MASS of the water that was heated. The question needs more work.

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.

- Why is burning wood exothermic? I thought the wood is taking in heat to burn, therefore endothermic. However, it then gives off heat which makes it exothermic. Which is it?
