    A student made a copper bracelet by hammering a small copper bar into the desired shape. The bracelet has a mass of 30.1 grams and was at a temperature of 21°C in the classroom. After the student wore the bracelet, the bracelet reached a temperature of 33°C. Later, the student removed the bracelet and placed it on a desk at home, where it cooled from 33°C to 19°C. The specific heat capacity of copper is 0.385 J/g•K.

    Seawater contains dissolved salts in the form of ions. Some of the ions found in seawater are Ca2+, Mg2+, K+, Na+, Cl, HCO3, and SO42−. An investigation was conducted to determine the concentration of dissolved salts in seawater at one location. A 300.-gram sample of the seawater was placed in an open container. After a week, all the water had evaporated and 10. grams of solid salts remained in the container.

    Carbon dioxide, CO2, changes from the solid phase to the gas phase at 1 atm and 194.5 K. In the solid phase, CO2 is often called dry ice. When dry ice sublimes in air at 298 K, the water vapor in the air can condense, forming a fog of small water droplets. This fog is often used for special effects at concerts and in movie-making.
