Because C-12 is fixed value of any organisms but the value of C-14 is constantly decreasing by time thats why every organism have their specific ratio of C14/C12

Use the molar heat capacity for aluminum from table 1 to calculate the amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of 260.5
Nimfa-mama [501]
Unfortunately, you failed to include the table 1 from which the molar heat capacity of aluminum could have been obtained. However, as a general rule, the heat needed to raise the temperature of a certain substance by certain degrees is calculated through the equation,
                            H = mcpdT
where H is heat, m is mass, cp is specific heat capacity, and dT is change in temperature. From a reliable source, cp for aluminum is equal to 0.215 cal/g°C. Substituting this to the equation,
                               H = (260.5 g)(0.215 cal/g°C)(125°C - 0)
                                        H = 7000.94 cal
