• Exothermic process is any process that gives off heat –
The energy will be listed as a product.
ΔH = Hproducts – Hreactants

Practice Problem
A lead (Pb) pellet having a mass of 26.47 g at 89.98°C
was placed in a constant-pressure calorimeter
containing 100.0 mL of water. The water temperature
rose from 22.50°C to 23.17°C.
We know the masses of water and the lead pellet as well as the initial and final
temperatures. Assuming no heat is lost to the surroundings, we can equate the heat lost by
the lead pellet to the heat gained by the water. Knowing the specific heat of water, we can
then calculate the specific heat of lead.
Because the heat lost by the lead pellet is equal to the heat
gained by the water,
qPb = −280.3 J.
