Question
A piece of metal with a specific heat of 0.57 Jg-1°C-1 at 1188 °C is dunked into a beaker containing 369.7 mL of water at 25.1 °C. It raised the water's temperature
by 14.5 °C. Assuming all heat is absorbed by the water, what was the mass (expressed in grams) of the metal?
Cwater = 4.184J9-1°C-1
Pwater = 1 g/mL
Answer in decimal form with 1 decimal place
