In a calorimetry experiment, a 49.4 g piece of metal at 118. °C is put into a cup of cool water that has 98.3 g of water in it. The water is initially at a temperature of 21. °C, but heats up to a temperature of 41. °C when the experiment is done. How much heat, in units of Joules, did the metal lose? (Use a positive number, even though heat is lost.) Do not include units in your answer.
