Determine the specific heat of the metal

Reference no: EM13317338

0.45 kg of a metal at 90degreesC is added to 0.40 kg of whater at 20.0degreesC.

a) If the final temp of the mixture is 26.0degreesC, what is the specific heat of the metal?

b) If the water container has a significant heat capacity, will this increase or decrease the metal specific heat determined in part (a) given the same data?
