2.1. A 220 g quantity of a certain metal is heated to 100.0 °C. The metal was immediately immersed into 258 ml of water that is initially at 25.0 °C. The temperature of the water rises to 36.5 °C. What is the specific heat of the metal? Assume the density of the water is 0.998 g/mL and the specific heat capacity of the water is 4.184 J/g.°C.
