Q. A 200gm block of metal is heated to 100 degrees Celcius in boiling water. This block is then placed in an aluminum calorimeter cup (mass - 30gm; c - .22 cal/g degrees C) containing 180 gm of water at 20 degrees C. If the final temperature of the mixture is 35.5 degrees C, find the specific heat of the metal.
