Solve correctly please.
A 19.75 g (mmetal) sample of metal is heated to 98.6°C (Tmetal initial) in a hot water bath until thermal equilibrium is reached.
The metal is quickly transferred to 50.0 mL. (50.0 g) (mwater) of water at 22.2°C (Twater initial) contained in a calorimeter.
The thermal equilibrium temperature of the metal sample plus water mixture is 28.3°C (Tfinal).
What is the specific heat (smetal) of the metal in J/g°C ?
Answer to 2 significant figures. Do not include unit.
HINT:
Heat given off by metal (-) = Heat absorbed by water (+)
