In an experiment to determine the specific heat of copper, a piece of copper weighing 50.06 is first heated to 100°C in steam. It is then immersed into water at 27.06°C.The water in the calorimeter weighs 100.08 g and the inner aluminum cap weighs 50.07 g. If the final temperature is 30.01 C, what is the specific heat of copper in CGS units given that the specific heat of aluminum is 0.22 cal/g- C? (Put only the value in three significant figures without the unit.)
