Question

A 90 g aluminum calorimeter contains 390 g of water at an equilibrium temperature of 20°С A 160g piece of metal, initially at 305°C is added to the calorimeter. The final temperature at equilibrium is
32° C. Assume there is no external heat exchange.
The specific heat capacities of aluminum and water
are 910 J/kg · K (aluminum) and 4190 J/kg · K (water). What is the specific heat capacity of the 160g piece of metal?​

Answer 1

the specific heat capacity of the 160g piece of metal is 470J/Kg×K
