(d) Two pieces of molybdenum of 78 g cach are dropped into 422 g of water at 11.2 °C. When the thermal equilibrium is reached, the temperature of the water is 17.5 °C. Determine the specific heat capacity, C. of molybdenum, given that the initial temperature of the pieces of molybdenum is 100 °C and the specific heat capacity, C, of water is 4.184 J gl°C-.
