Define what is the specific heat of the alloy

Reference no: EM13196105

A 23.0 gram sample of an alloy was heated to 100.00 C and dropped into a beaker containing 92 grams of water at 25.26 C. The temperature of the water rose t oa final temperature of 27.84 C. Neglecting heat loss to the room and the heat capacity of the beaker itself, what is the specific heat of the alloy?
