A 50.00 g sample of an unknown metal is heated
to 45.00°C. It is then placed in a coffee-cup
calorimeter filled with water. The calorimeter and
the water have a combined mass of 250.0 g and
an overall specific heat of 1.035 cal/g•°C. The
initial temperature of the calorimeter is 10.00°C.
The system reaches a final temperature of
11.08°C when the metal is added.
What is the specific heat of the metal

i think the answer is terrae but not 100 percent sure. ▓▬▬ §

chemical changes occur when a substance combines with another to form a new substance, called chemical synthesis or, alternatively, chemical decomposition into two or more different substances. these processes are called chemical reactions and, in general, are not reversible except by further chemical reactions. some reactions produce heat and are called exothermic reactions and others may require heat to enable the reaction to occur, which are called endothermic reactions. understanding chemical changes is a major part of the science of chemistry.
