Answer: The final temperature of nickel and water is
.
Explanation:
The given data is as follows.
Mass of water, m = 55.0 g,
Initial temp,
,
Final temp,
= ?,
Specific heat of water = 4.184
,
Now, we will calculate the heat energy as follows.
q = 
= 
Also,
mass of Ni, m = 15.0 g,
Initial temperature,
,
Final temperature,
= ?
Specific heat of nickel = 0.444 
Hence, we will calculate the heat energy as follows.
q = 
=
Therefore, heat energy lost by the alloy is equal to the heat energy gained by the water.

= -(
)
= 
Thus, we can conclude that the final temperature of nickel and water is
.
I just took the test it is A hope this helps :)
