Evaluate the solution of the following questions-

Question 1- Ethyl alcohol has a boiling point of 78.0^o C, a freezing point of -114^o C, a heat of vaporization of 879 kJ/kg, a heat of fusion of 109 kJ/kg, and a specific heat of 2.43 kJ/kg·K. How much energy must be removed from 0.596 kg of ethyl alcohol that is initially a gas at 78.0^o C so that it becomes a solid at -114^o C?

Question 2-Calculate the specific heat of a metal from the following data. A container made of the metal has a mass of 3.8 kg and contains 14 kg of water. A 2.0 kg piece of the metal initially at a temperature of 158°C is dropped into the water. The container and water initially have a temperature of 16.0°C, and the final temperature of the entire system is 18.0°C.
