A chemical reaction takes place inside a flask submerged in a water bath. The water bath contains 7.90 kg of water at 23.9°C. During the reaction, 123 kJ of heat flows out of the bath and into the flask.
A) Determine the final temperature of the water bath.
B) Calculate the change in internal energy of the water bath.
C) Estimate the specific heat capacity of the water.
D) Identify the direction of heat flow between the water bath and the flask.
