how do u work this problem?

M MHE Reader O A https://newconnect.mheducation.com/flow/connect.html Check my work mode This shows what is correct or incorrect for the work you have complete A 1.00 g piece of copper metal is initially at 100.0°C it is dropped into a coffee cup calorimeter containing 500 g of water at a temperature of 200°C. After stirring, the final temperature of both specific heat (capacity) of water is 4.18 J(g K), what is the heat capacity of the copper n J/K? copper and water is 25.0°C. Assuming no heat losses, and that the Multiple Choice 13.9 J/Ag K) 279 J/tg K) 209 J/g K) ?.fyev 80125 of 25 Next> arch

Explanation / Answer

Heat absorbed by water = specific heat of water x mass of water x temperature change

= 4.18 JgC x 50g x (25-20) C

= 1045 J

Heat released byhot copper = specific heat of copper x mass of copper x temp change

= S x ( 1g) x ( 100-25)C

= (75gC)S

( where J is joules , S is symbol for specific heat of copper with units of J/gC or J/gK)

now heat released by hot copper = heat absorbed by water

(75gC) S = 1045 J

S = 13.93 J/gC
