To determine the specific heat of an object, a student heats itto 100 ∘C∘C in boiling water. She then placesthe 78.1 gg object ina 175 gg aluminum calorimetercontaining 102 gg of water. The aluminum and waterare initially at a temperature of 19.4 ∘C∘C, and arethermally insulated from their surroundings.
If the final temperature is 23.4 C∘, what is thespecific heat of the object?
