A 50.5 g sample of glass is put into a calorimeter (see sketch at right) that contains 150.0 g of water. The glass sample starts off at 95.8 °C and the temperature of the water starts off at 17.0 °C. When the temperature of the water stops changing it's 21.0 °C. The pressure remains constant at 1 atm. Calculate the specific heat capacity of glass according to this experiment. Be sure your answer is rounded to 2 significant digits. J g. °C

Step 1
Answer:
This question is based on the conservation of heat. When two objects are brought in contact of each-other and there is no heat loss then heat lost by the hotter object will be equal to the heat gained by the colder object.
