QuestionA water sample absorbed 2,851 J2,851 \mathrm{~J} from a 42.6 g42.6 \mathrm{~g} metal piece cooling from 209C209^{\circ} \mathrm{C} to 40.0C40.0^{\circ} \mathrm{C}. Find the specific heat of the metal: Cmetal =[?]JgC\mathrm{C}_{\text {metal }}=[?] \frac{\mathrm{J}}{\mathrm{g} \cdot{ }^{\circ} \mathrm{C}}.

Studdy Solution
Take the absolute value of CCC=.399Jg°C=.399Jg°CC = |-.399 \frac{J}{g \cdot °C}| =.399 \frac{J}{g \cdot °C}The specific heat capacity of the metal is .399Jg°C.399 \frac{J}{g \cdot °C}.
