Tf= 20.02 Celsius

II. Specific Heats of Metals. Keep all the masses in "grams" and temperatures in Celsius. Select "Show specific heat", "Show graph view" and "Next" to advance between steps. 1. Select iron from the "Solids" and warm up the metal block Mb (iron) to around To=60 C. Select then water from the "Liquids". The mass of the water, Mw, should be about double of the iron's mass. The hot metal block will be then added to colder water Tw=20 C in the calorimeter. Record If, the common final temperature of the water and the metal block in the calorimeter. 2. The heat lost by the hot metal block is equal to the heat gained by the colder water in the calorimeter: Qgained-IQlostI 3. Calculate the specific heat of the metal block, ch Specific heat of water is cy- 4.184 J/g C. Mw . Cw . (Tf - Tw)= Mb . cb . (Tb - Tf) Type in below the same equation, but with your values in and then solve for co. Keep the masses in grams and temperatures in Celsius
