the sum of heats gained is zero.
24*cmetal*(85.5-24.8)+125*cwater*(24.8-20)=0
solver for cmetal.
A 24.0 g metal cube at 85.5 °C is placed into a calorimeter containing 125 mL of water at 20.0 °C. The final equilibrium temperature of the metal cube and the water in the calorimeter is 24.8 °C. Determine the specific heat of the metal
