when 45g of an alloy is dropped into 100.0 g of water at 25c, the final temperature is 37c. what is the specific heat of the alloy

1 answer

heat lost by alloy + heat gained by water = 0
[mass alloy x specific heat alloy x (Tfinal-Tinitial)] + [mass water x specific heat water x (Tfinal-Tinitial)] = 0
