A piece of unknown metal with mass 68.6 g is heated to an initial temperature of 100 °C and dropped into 42 g of water (with an initial temperature of 20 °C) in a calorimeter. The final temperature of the system is 52.1°C. The specific heat of water is 4.184 J/g*⁰C. What is the specific heat of the metal?Identify a potential source of error that may have occurred during the calorimetry experiment. Justify your response in two or more complete sentences.
According to the mass of the metal and the temperature it should be under the average heat of water which is 4.184 but also above it, which brings us back to how much it dropped which means that it goes back and going half way.
