Question

What percentage of the heat lost by the hot object(s) was gained by the water? Explain at least three factors that might have caused the results of parts D and E to be different

Answer 1

102.8312649 --> 103%

The marbles there must not be any hear going anywhere else. If any heat energy warmed up anything else in the system then that is heat that did not go to the marbles.

`(Answer D)/(Answer E) x 100 = ???`

(This is the equasion I used to got my answer)

2119.121 / 2060.775 x 100 = ???

2119.121 / 2060.775 = 1.028312649

1.028312649 x 100 = 102.8312649

102.8312649 --> 103%

Answer 2

Heat gains or losses result in changes in temperature, changes in state or the performance of work. Heat is a transfer of energy. When gained or lost by an object, there will be corresponding energy changes within that object.
