Physics

In a calorimetry experiment to determine the specific heatcapacity of a metal block, the following data was recorded:Quantity Mass of the metal block 0.50 kg Mass of empty calorimeter+ Stirrer 0.06 kg Mass of calorimeter + stirrer + water 0.20 kgMass of water 0.14 kg Initial Temperature of metal block 55.5 ⁰CInitial Temperature of water and calorimeter 22 ⁰C FinalTemperature of block- water system 27.4 ⁰C Take the specific heatcapacity of water to be 4186 J/Kg °C. The calorimeter and stirrerare made of Copper. Specific heat capacity of Copper is 387 J/Kg°C. Ignore the mass of the stirrer. Use the data and theinformation given to: a) Calculate the specific heat capacity ofthe metal block. (Please show ALL work for full credit) b) Fromyour result above, what is the metal block probably made up of? c)Calculate the final temperature of the block – water system if themass of the water in the calorimeter is increased to 0.50 kg (thesame as the mass of the metal block).
