When a 40.0 g sample of a metal at 25.00 °c is added to 65.0 g of water at 100.00 °c, the final temperature of both the water and metal is 93.27 °c. the specific heat of water is 4.184 j/(g×c). what is the specific heat of the metal?

 Specific heat of the metal is

Explanation:

As we know that,  

        .................(1)

where,

q = heat absorbed or released

= mass of metal = 40.0 g

= mass of water = 65.0 g

= final temperature =

= temperature of metal =

= temperature of water =

= specific heat of metal = ?

= specific heat of water=

Now put all the given values in equation (1), we get

Therefore, the specific heat of the metal is

answer///carbon;
