In terms of particles Why does an iceberg have more heat energy than molten iron?
This is based on mass and heat capacity. an iceberg with a mass of 500 metric tons would have a heat content of ~ 35.6 million kilo-calories. 1 kg of molten iron would have a heat content of 260.372 kilo-calories (500 metric tons of molten iron has a heat content of 130,186 million kilo-calories)
Water requires more energy than an equal mass of iron for its temperature to increase by a given amount because water has a greater?
Water has a greater specific heat capacity.
Which would require a greater amount of heat water or iron?
To raise the temperature of both an equal amount, water would require more energy. In terms of the energy required to raise the temperature: iron = 0.45 joules / gram . kelvin water = 4.2 joules / gram . kelvin This is known as the specific heat capacity of a material
50 g of an iron piece with initial temperature of 100C was dipped in 100g of water at 20C If the tempreatureof the mixture becmes 25.5C then calculate the specific heat of iron?
This is a classical question: Assuming there is no heat loss/gain to/from surroundings: Heat lost by iron = Heat gained by water MCDO = mcdo 50 x C x (100 - 25.5) = 100 x 4.2 x (25.5 - 20) The specific heat capacity of iron is C and that of water is 4.2 Jg-1K-1 Thus, C = 0.620 Jg-1K-1
Hard water refers to?
Iron in the water. Often called that when the content of iron is too much for one to tolerate.
Iron content of tapwater in hull?
According to the Yorkshire Water website there is approximately 8.49 micrograms of iron per litre of water.
Does water with high iron content cause stainless steel fittings to rust?
Good quality stainless steel should never rust. I have noticed that the high iron content in our water causes red particles of iron oxide to remain on stainless steel vessels - and it looks exactly like rust but its just the iron in the water drying out on the stainless steel.
Which warms up faster when heat is applied iron water sand or wood?
Iron has the lowest specific heat, so it will heat up faster.
A red-hot iron kilogram mass is put into 1 L of cool water. Is the increase in the water temperature equal to the decrease in the iron's temperature?
Dump the same energy into both and the iron will experience the greater temperature change. Nothing else has as high a heat capacity as water. The amount of heat required to heat a kilogram of a substance through one Kelvin (same as a degree celsius or centigrade) is called its specific heat capacity. The specific heat capacity of water is a big 4.18 kilo joules per kg per degree centigrade but iron only requires 0.45 kilo joules to heat it through the same 1 centigrade. So for any given amount of heat, the IRON will move through the greatest temperature range, rather the than the water. Water is actually therefore quite a good insulator; trapping a layer next to the skin in a wet suit is a good way of keeping warm! Hope this helps.
Which is the best insulator of heat iron water nitrogen or alchohol?
water
What has the largest specific heat capacity brick iron water or glass?
Water.
How do you calculate dry metric tons for Iron Ore?
A Dry Metric Tonne is calculated by taking out the percentage of water/moisture content. If water content in the material is 2%, then the DMT is equal to the total weight less 2% or 100% - 2% = 98%, so DMT = 98% of MT
