Question

A metal piece of mass 20 g is heated to a constant
temperature of 100°C. Then it is added in a
calorimeter of mass 50 g and specific heat
capacity 0.42 Jg-K-, containing 50 g of water
at 20°C. After stirring the water, the highest
temperature recorded is 22°C. Calculate the
specific heat capacity of metal.
Specific heat capacity of water = 4.2 Jg- K.​

Answer 1

Answer:

A metal piece of mass 20 g is heated to a constant temperature of 100oc. Then it is dropped in a calorimeter of mass 50 g and specific heat capacity 0.42 j g-1k-1, containing 50 g of water at 20oc. After stirring the water, the highest temperature recorde
