A 50.00-g sample of metal at 78.0°C is dropped into cold water. If the metal sample cools to 17.0°C and the specific heat of metal is 0.108 cal/g·°C, how much heat is released?

−329.4 calorie

Explanation:Heat released by metal = q=m_mc_m(T_2-T1)q=m

m

−T1)

m_m=50\ g\\c_m=0.108\ cal\ g^{-1}\ \degree C^{-1}\\q=50\times0.108(17-78)=-329.4\ caloriem

q=50×0.108(17−78)=−329.4 calorie

Here minus sign indicate that heat is released

the positions which points up in upward carbon and down in downward carbon are axial

and vice versa holds true for equatorial positions

so the correct answer with labelled diagram will be
