Apiece of material with a mass of 755 g is heated to 84.5 c and added to 50 g of water at 5 c. the final temperature of the mixture is 75 c. find the specific heat of the material

Alright sorry you're getting the answer hours later, but i can help with this.
so you're looking for specific heat, the equation for it is macaΔTa = - mbcbΔTb with object a and object b. that's mass of a times specific heat of a times final minus initial temperature of a equals -(mass of b times specific heat of b times final minus initial temperature of b)
so putting in your values is, 755g * ca * (75 celsius - 84.5 celsius) = -(50g * cb * (75 celsius - 5 celsius))
well we know the specific heat of water is always 4180J/kg celsius, so put that in for cb
with a bit of simplification to the equation by doing everything on each side first you have, -7172.5 * ca = -14630000
divide both sides by -7172.5 so you can single out ca and you get, ca= 2039.74
add units for specific heat which are J/kg celsius and the specific heat of the material is 2039.74 J/kg celsius

Ithink its solid. hope this
