A 25.0 g sample of quartz, which has a specific heat capacity of 0.730 Jgc, is dropped into an insulated container containing 250.0 g of water at 65.0 °C and a constant pressure of 1 atm. The initial temperature of the quartz is 5.7 °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. × G
