Asked by Luke
A 15.0 g of sample of silver is heated to 100.0 0C and then placed in a constant-pressure calorimeter containing 25.0 g of water at 23.0 0C. The final temperature of the system was measured as 25.0 0C. What is the specific heat of silver?

The sum of the heats added is zero.
Heat gained by silver+heat gained by water=0
masssilver*Csilver*(25-100)C+masswater*cwater*(25-23)C=0
Heat gained by silver+heat gained by water=0
masssilver*Csilver*(25-100)C+masswater*cwater*(25-23)C=0
