2. A sample of nickel is heated to 99.8°C and placed in a coffee cup calorimeter containing 150.0 g water at 23.5°C. After the metal cools, the final temperature of metal and water mixture is 25.0°C. If the specific heat capacity of nickel is 0.444 J/°C g. what mass of nickel was originally heated? Assume no heat loss to the surroundings.
