mcup = ___19.6______ g
Analysis:
A: Zinc, specific heat = 0.093
B: Aluminum, specific heat = 0.210
C: Iron, specific heat = 0.110
D: Copper, specific heat = 0.093
E: Brass, specific heat = 0.090
Solving for cs, the specific heat of the unknown specimen,
Calculate: the change in temperature of the water, the change in temperature of the specimen (it starts at the boiling point of water, 100 degrees C), the total heat transferred to the water, and the specific heat of the specimen.
