Q: A sample of copper metal is heated from $$25\ ^\circ\mathrm{C} to$$ $$75\ ^\circ\mathrm{C}. If $$the specific heat of copper is $$0.385\ \mathrm{J/g\cdot ^\circ C}$$ and the sample has a mass of $$50\ \mathrm{g}$$, how much heat ($$q) is $$absorbed?

$$q = 0.385 \times 50 \times (75 - 25) = 962.5\ \mathrm{J}$$

Q: A sample contains $$80\%$$ $$^{35}\mathrm{Cl}$$ and $$20\%$$ $$^{37}\mathrm{Cl}. $$What is the average atomic mass of chlorine?

$$(0.80 \times 35) + (0.20 \times 37) = 35.4$$
