An experiment was conducted to determine the specific heat of platinum. It was determined that 158.8 Joules of heat were required to increase the temperature of a 50.0 gram sample of platinum from 20.0 oC to 45.5 oC. Based on these experimental results calculate the specific heat (J/goC) of platinum. Do not type units into your answer.
An experiment was performed to determine the heat capacity of a coffee cup calorimeter. The calorimeter contained 90.0 g of water at a temperature of 21.3 °C. 105.0 g of water at a temperature of 50.2 °C were poured into the calorimeter and the contents of the calorimeter were stirred The final temperature of the water and the calorimeter was 35.6 °C.
