A 20.0 g sample of polyisoprene, which has a specific heat capacity of 1.880 J-gc, is dropped into an insulated container containing 150.0 g of water at 30.0 °C and a constant pressure of 1 atm. The initial temperature of the polyisoprene is 94.2 "C. Assuming no heat is absorbed from or by the container, or the surroundings, calculate the equilibrium temperature of the water. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits. c 3 5
