. Suppose a piece of metal at 90 °C is quickly transferred into a Styrofoam cup containing 212 grams of water at 24 °C. After a minute or so, the temperature of the contents of the cup is stable at 35 °C. Use 4.2 J/(g.°C) as the specific heat capacity of water and assume that during this time the energy transferred between the contents of the cup and the surroundings is negligible and that there is no heat loss to the cup.
