Answer:

The specific heat of the metal is 0,50 J/gºC

Explanation:

Assume that no heat is lost to the surroundings

(Q = m . C . ΔT)metal + (Q = m . C . ΔT)water = 0

Let's replace our values.

55g . C . (18,7ºC - 75ºC) + 100g . 4,184 J/g·°C . (18,7ºC - 15ºC) = 0

55g . C . -56,3 ºC + 418,4J/·°C . 3,7ºC = 0

-3096,5 gºC . C + 1548,08 J = 0

1548,08 J = 3096,5 gºC . C

1548,08 J / 3096,5 gºC  = C = 0,50 J/gºC
