spe capacity of a metal. A piece of hot metal is dropped onto a weighed quantity of ice. The energy transferred from the metal to the ice can be determined from the amount of ice melted. Suppose you heated a 57.4 g piece of silver to 96.8 °C and then dropped it onto ice. When the metal's temperature had dropped to 0.0 °C, it is found that 3.94 g of ice had melted. What is the specific heat capacity of silver? (The heat of fusion of water is 333 J/g.) Specific heat capacity = J/g. K
