A 228-g coin made of zinc is heated and placed in 100.0 g of water at 16.0°C. The temperature when the zinc and water come to thermal equilibrium is 24.0°C. What was the initial temperature of the zinc coin? Cs(Zn) = 0.389 J/g·K, Cs(H2O) = 4.18 J/g·K Express your answer to one decimal place. T1 of coin = Answer °C
