A student conducted several calorimetry investigations. In the first of the investigations, the student heats a 21.0 g price of metal that is know to have a specific heat capacity of 0.449 J/g°C to a temperature of 80°C. Then a piece of metal is added to the beaker of water (70.0 grams at 20.00°C). The specific heat capacity of water is 4.187 J/g°C. If the student repeated the investigation with 50.0 g of water instead what would be different.
