A coffee-cup calorimeter contains 55.0 g of water at 25.90° C. If 4.21 g gold metal at 89.20° C is
placed in the calorimeter, what is the final temperature of the water in the calorimeter? The specific heat
of water is 4.184 J/g° C; the specific heat capacity of gold is 0.129 J/g° C.
A 200 gram copper calorimeter contains 400 g of water at 25 °C. A metal specimen weighing 250 g is heated to a certain temperature and then plunged into the calorimeter. The final temperature of the mixture is 42 °C. If then specific heat of the metal specimen is 0.09 cal/(g-°C), find the initial temperature of the specimen just before it was plunged into the calorimeter
