A 50.0 g sample of Chromium metal was heated to 103 degrees Celcius and then dropped into a beaker containing 76.0 g of water at 25.0 degrees Celcius. If the specific heat of Chromium metal is 0.110 cal/g C, what will be the equilibrium temperature of the Chromium-Water mixture? (Cwater = 1 cal/g C) %3D

**Heat Transfer and Equilibrium Temperature Calculation**

*A practical application of specific heat capacity.*

**Problem Statement:**

A 50.0 g sample of Chromium metal was heated to 103 degrees Celsius and then dropped into a beaker containing 76.0 g of water at 25.0 degrees Celsius. If the specific heat of Chromium metal is 0.110 cal/g°C, what will be the equilibrium temperature of the Chromium-Water mixture? 

Given Data:
- Mass of Chromium (m₁): 50.0 g 
- Initial temperature of Chromium (T₁_initial): 103°C
- Mass of Water (m₂): 76.0 g 
- Initial temperature of Water (T₂_initial): 25.0°C 
- Specific heat of Chromium (C₁): 0.110 cal/g°C 
- Specific heat of Water (C₂): 1 cal/g°C

**Diagram Explanation:**

There are no graphs or diagrams present in the image. The problem provides a scenario that can be analyzed using the principles of heat transfer and specific heat to calculate the equilibrium temperature of the mixture.
