heat lost by 100 C water + heat gained by cold water - heat lost by condensation =0
1.1*4.184*(Tf-100) +[38.5*4.184*(Tf-27)] - 1.1*2257 = 0
Solve for Tf.
You can do it another way if you wish.
First calculate how much the condensing steam will raise the T of cold water.
1.1*2257 = 2482.7 J released.
38.5*4.184*(Tf-27) = 2482.7
Tf = 42.41 THEN
heat lost by 1.1g steam @ 100C + heat gained by 41.41 C water = 0 and recalculate Tf EXCEPT, of course, Tinitial is 42.41 and not 27.0 C. Same answer is obtained.
Thank you! what is the 2257 from?
