The rate at which the temperature of an object is related to the difference between the temperature of the object and the temperature of the surrounding. A metal was chilled at roughly 0°C. It was then left in a room where the temperature is 30°C. In 10 minutes the metal became 10°C. It was left again for another 10 minutes, and then heated to a container with boiling water at 100°C. Assuming the rate of proportionality is constant. What will be the final temperature of the metal, in °C, after boiling it in 10 minutes?
