A 48.26g sample of aluminum at 100.0C is dropped into 34.47g of water at 25.0C What is the final temperature?
To find the final temperature, you can use the principle of conservation of energy, Q lost = Q gained. The heat lost by the aluminum will be equal to the heat gained by the water.
Use this formula: (mass of aluminum) x (specific heat capacity of aluminum) x (change in temperature) = (mass of water) x (specific heat capacity of water) x (change in temperature).
You can then solve for the final temperature.
