Reference no: EM13997611

An aluminum cube of mass 44.28 g (g = grams), heated to 100.0A?°C, is immersed in 70.16 g of water at 22.3°C. After coming to thermal equilibrium, the temperature of the water-aluminum cube system is 31.5°C. Calculate the specific heat of aluminum. Answer should be in units of calories, grams and °C.
