Question
thermometer-
A 52.2 g sample of brass, which has a specific heat capacity of 0.375 J-g1C1, is put into a calorimeter (see sketch at right)
that contains 200.0 g of water. The temperature of the water starts off at 19.0 °C. When the temperature of the water stops
changing it's 20.5 °C. The pressure remains constant at 1 atm.
Calculate the initial temperature of the brass sample. Be sure your answer is rounded to the correct number of significant digits.
