A 50 g piece of metal at 100°C is placed in 50 g of water at 25°C. The final highest temperature attained is 30°C. If there is no heat loss to the calorimeter, which equation calculates the metal heat capacity?

 

Question 7 options:

 

–(50 g × –70°C)

/ (50 g × 4.184 J g–1 °C–1 × 5°C)

 

–(50 g × 4.184 J g–1 °C–1 × 5°C)

/ (50 g × –70°C)

 

(50 g × 4.184 J g–1 °C–1 × 70°C)

/ (50 g × 5°C)
