    A 1.50 kg sample of water at 15.0°C is in a calorimeter. You drop a piece of steel with a mass of 0.380 kg at 230°C into it. After the sizzling subsides, what is the final equilibrium temperature (in °C)? (Make the reasonable assumptions that any steam produced condenses into liquid water during the process of equilibration and that the evaporation and condensation don't affect the outcome.) (I attempted and got 16.3 which was incorrect)

    A 30 mL sample which appeared to be a clear, colorless liquid was distilled by simple distillation (using a heating mantle and variac as the heat source). When the first drop of liquid was observed the temperature was 77°C and the temperature remained in the range of 77°C to 80°C while the collection rate remained fairly constant for the remainder of the distillation. After approximately 15 mL of distillate had distilled, the liquid stopped boiling, even though the heating was...
