A block of metal of mass 54 grams initially at a temperature of 285° C is placed in 474 grams of water initially at a temperature of 50° C. If we can ignore energy losses to the environment, what is the equilibrium temperature that the metal and the water will reach? The specific heat capacity of the metal is 0.28 cal/g/ºC. Round off your answer to a whole number (no decimals) but do not type the unit.

An unknown hot metal at 148.7°C with a mass of 49.6g was mixed with 28.61g of water at an initial temperature of 19.74°C. A final temperature (for both water and metal) of 27.71°C was reached. In units of J/(g°C), what is the specific heat of the unknown metal? Note: In the space below, please enter you numerical answer. Do not enter any units. If you enter units, your answer will be marked as incorrect.
Problem 1.42. The specific heat capacity of Albertson's Rotini Tricolore is ap- proximately 1.8 J/g °C. Suppose you toss 340 g of this pasta (at 25°C) into 1.5 liters of boiling water. What effect does this have on the temperature of the water (before there is time for the stove to provide more heat)?
