Question

57. A brass weight of 100 gm is heated so that when a particle of solder is placed on it,
it just melts. The brass weight is then placed in 100 c.c. of water at 10°C contained
in calorimeter of water equivalent 20 gm. If the resultant temperature is 40°C, and
the specific heat of brass 0.9, what is the melting point of solder? (in °c)​
