Question

A 30.5 g sample of an alloy at 94.0°C is placed into 48.7 g water at 20.3°C in an insulated coffee cup. The heat capacity of the coffee cup (without the water) is 9.2 J/K. If the final temperature of the system is 31.1°C, what is the specific heat capacity of the alloy? (c of water is 4.184 J/g×K)
