How to compute the specific heat of the metal

Reference no: EM13647518

A 21.2 g sample of a metal was heated to 61.98 degrees C. When the metal was placed in a constant-pressure calorimeter containing 30.0 g of water, the temperature of the water rose from 24.69 degrees C to 29.27 degrees C. Calculate the specific heat of the metal.
