Question

Consider the following data:

Metal Al Cu
Mass (g) 10 30
Specific heat (J/g·°C) 0.900 0.385
Temperature (°C) 40 60

When these two metals are placed in contact, which of the following will take place?

Group of answer choices
No heat will flow in either direction
Heat will flow from Cu to Al because Cu has a larger mass
Heat will flow from Al to Cu because Al has a larger specific heat
Heat will flow from Cu to Al because Cu has a larger heat capacity
Heat will flow from Cu to Al because Cu is at a higher temperature
