A student has calibrated his/her calorimeter and finds the heat capacity to be 14.8 J/°C. S/he then determines the molar heat capacity of aluminum. The data are: 25.7 g Al at 100.0°C are put into the calorimeter, which contains 99.8 g H20 at 18.5°C. The final temperature comes to 22.6°C. Calculate the heat capacity of Al in J/mol-°C
