Answer

(a) $2.62KJ$ (b) $30.9KJ$ (c) $0.058Kg;0.68Kg$

Work Step by Step

(a) We know that $Q_{water}=m_{water}C_{water}(100C^{\circ}-50C^{\circ})$ $\implies Q_{water}=(12.5g)(4186J/Kg.C^{\circ})(100C^{\circ}-50C^{\circ})$ $\implies Q_{water}=2.62KJ$ (b) We know that $Q_1=m_{steam}L_V$ $Q_1=(12.5g)(22.6\times 10^5J/Kg)$ $Q_1=28.25\times 10^3J$ $Q_2=m_{steam}C_{water}(100C^{\circ}-50C^{\circ})=2.62KJ$ Now $Q=Q_1+Q_2$ $\implies Q=28.25\times 10^3J+2.62\times 10^3J=30.9KJ$ (c) We know that $m=\frac{Q}{c(T_f-T_i)}$ $\implies m=\frac{2.620\times 10^3J}{3,500J/Kg.K(50.0C^{\circ}-37.0C^{\circ})}=0.058Kg$ Now for the second scenario $m=\frac{Q}{c(T_f-T_i)}$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $m=\frac{3.09\times 10^4J}{(3,500J/Kg.K)(50.0C^{\circ}-37.0C^{\circ})}=0.68Kg$
