What is the specific heat capacity of the other substance

Reference no: EM13287691

Two bars of identical mass are at 32 °C. One is made from glass and the other from another substance. The specific heat capacity of glass is 840 J/(kg · C°). When identical amounts of heat are supplied to each, the glass bar reaches a temperature of 94 °C, while the other bar reaches 258.0 °C. What is the specific heat capacity of the other substance?
