An iron calorimeter of mass 153 g contains 260 g of water. The system is in thermal equilibrium at +10°C. We place two blocks of metal in the water: one is a 45 g piece of copper with an initial temperature of +61°C; the second piece has a mass of 75 g and is initially at +100°C. The combined system reaches a final equilibrium temperature of +41°C. Calculate the specific heat capacity of the unknown second piece of metal.

An insulated aluminum calorimeter vessel of 150 g mass contains 300 g of liquid nitrogen boiling at 77 K. A metal block at an initial temperature of 303 K is dropped into the liquid nitrogen. It boils away 15.8 g of nitrogen in reaching thermal equilibrium. The block is then withdrawn from the nitrogen and quickly transferred to a second insulated copper calorimeter vessel of 200 g mass containing 500 g of water at 30.1 degrees celsius. The block coolds...
