Let’s say you try to get crafty. Instead of directly heating your carbontetrachloride with the Bunsen Burner, you decide it would be better to drop in a hot chunk of thorium (d = 11.724 g/mL , c = 0.12 J/g*K ) metal. If you have a 29.848 g chunk of thorium, how hot (in K) must you heat the thorium in order for the chunk of metal to have enough energy to heat a 1.027 mL sample of carbontetrachloride at room temperature (298 K) to it's boiling temperature?
