When 100.0 g block of a metal at 600 oC is plunged into 100.0 g of water (specific heat capacity 4.2 J/g. oC) at 30 oC, the final temperature of both the metal and the water is 80 oC. If no heat is lost to the surroundings, what is the specific heat capacity of the metal in J/g. oC? Give your answer to 2 significant figures.

![-[m_1\times c_1\times (T_{final}-T_1)]=[m_2\times c_2\times (T_{final}-T_2)]](/tpl/images/1004/1883/92a72.png)
.................(1)
= mass of metal = 100.0 g
= mass of water = 100.0 g
= final temperature = 
= temperature of metal = 
= temperature of water = 
= specific heat of metal = ?
= specific heat of water= 
![-[100.0\times c_1\times (80-600)]=[100.0\times 4.2\times (80-30)]](/tpl/images/1004/1883/4e506.png)
