Specific heat is the amount of heat absorb or released by a substance to change the temperature to one degree Celsius. To determine the specific heat, we use the expression for the heat absorbed by the system. Heat gained or absorbed in a system can be calculated by multiplying the given mass to the specific heat capacity of the substance and the temperature difference. It is expressed as follows:
Heat = mC(T2-T1)
By substituting the given values, we can calculate for C which is the specific heat of the material.
2510 J = .158 kg ( 1000 g / 1 kg) (C) ( 61.0 - 32.0 °C)
C = 0.5478 J / g °C

Answer:
5.758 is the density of the metal ingot in grams per cubic centimeter.
Explanation:
1) Mass of pycnometer = M = 27.60 g
Mass of pycnometer with water ,m= 45.65 g
Density of water at 20 °C = d =
1 kg = 1000 g


Mass of water ,m'= m - M = 45.65 g - 27.60 g =18.05 g
Volume of pycnometer = Volume of water present in it = V


2) Mass of metal , water and pycnometer = 56.83 g
Mass of metal,M' = 9.5 g
Mass of water when metal and water are together ,m''= 56.83 g - M'- M
56.83 g - 9.5 g - 27.60 g = 19.7 g
Volume of water when metal and water are together = v

Density of metal = d'
Volume of metal = v' =
Difference in volume will give volume of metal ingot.
v' = v - V


Since volume cannot be in negative .
Density of the metal =d'
=
