A metal block of mass 0.500 kg is heated to a temperature of 373 K and then placed into a container with 0.200 kg of water at an initial temperature of 293 K. The final equilibrium temperature of the system is 303 K. Assume no heat is lost to the surroundings. Specific heat capacity of water:cwater=4186 J/kg K (3 pts) Calculate the heat gained by water. (3 pts) Calculate the specific heat capacity of the metal.
