In this experiment, the final temperature of the system is the
maximum temperature reached by the system.
From the graphs,
final temperature of the system in run 1 = 33.1oC
final temperature of the system in run 2 = 32.8oC
Thus, temp. change in water = 33.1-21.1 = 12oC (Run 1)
and 32.8-23.1 = 9.7oC (Run 2)
Energy gained by water = mass of water x Sp. heat of water x temp.
change of water
Thus,
Energy gained by water (Run 1) = 25.0 x 4.184 x 11.9 = 1255.2
Joules gm-1oC-1
Energy gained by water (Run 2) = 25.0 x 4.184 x 9.7 = 1014.62
Joules g-1oC-1
Now, Energy gained by water = energy released by the metal
Thus,
Average Sp. heat of metal = (0.50 + 0.62)/2 = 0.56 J
gm-1oC-1
The given Sp. heat value correlates to the Sp. heat value of
Iron metal. (56Fe)

Please help me figure out the blank part from the 1st photo..temp of metal was 60...
