You were walking along España Blvd. and you randomly picked up a piece of strange shiny rock that weighs 42 g. You immediately ran to the ChE lab in Roque Ruaño Bldg. and asked the lab supervisor if you could so some experiments on this strange object. You found that it requires 1,383 J to increase its temperature from 25.7 °C to 81.2 °C. What is its specific heat capacity in Jig°C? Round off your answers to the nearest thousandth's digit.
