There are chief differences between organic and inorganic compounds. ... The main difference is in the presence of a carbon atom; organic compounds will contain a carbon atom (and often a hydrogen atom, to form hydrocarbons), while almost all inorganic compounds do not contain either of those two atoms.
We do a heat balance to solve this:
(m cp ΔT)water = -(m cp ΔT)metal
100.8 (4.18) (27 - 22) = -65 (cp)(27-100)
cp = 100.8 (4.18) (27 - 22) / (-65 (27-100))
cp = 0.44 J/ (°C × g)
The specific heat of the metal is 0.44 J/ (°C × g)
The correct answer to the problem is 0.193 which is three significant figures.
<h3>What are significant figures?</h3>
The term significant figures has to do with the figures that have a mathematical meaning. We know that the result has to correspond to the highest number of significant figures.
Hence, If we multiply 0.34 x 0.568 the result ought to be recorded as 0.193 which is three significant figures.
