A9.45g piece of an unknown metal at 470.8 °C is placed into a coffee cup calorimeter containing 84.6g of water at 8.7 °C. After the metal is added to the water the temperature of the water climbs to 13.2 °C. What is the specific heat of the metal in J/(g°C)? Note: the specific heat of water is 4.18 J/(g°C).
