Multiple Choice
In an experiment, 30.0 g of metal was heated to 98.0°C and then quickly transferred to 50.0 g of water in a calorimeter. The heat capacity of the calorimeter with the water was 211 J/°C. The initial temperature of the calorimeter was 27.0°C, and the final temperature after addition of the metal was 32.5°C. What is the value of the specific heat capacity of the metal?
A) 0.140 J/(g.°C)
B) 83.0 J/(g .°C)
C) 0.540 J/(g . °C)
D) 0.591 J/(g . °C)
E) 29.5 J/(g.°C)
