A piece of metal with a specific heat of 0.77 Jg-1°C-1 at 1164.7 °C is dunked into a beaker containing 484.9 mL of water at 25.5 °C. It raised the water's
temperature by 6.6 °C. Assuming al heat is absorbed by the water, what was the mass (expressed in grams) of the metal?
Cwater =
4.184 Jg-1°C-1
Pwater = 1 g/mL
