A 100.0g sample of an unknown metal at 100.0 degrees Celcius is added to 200.0mL of water (denisty of 1.00g/mL) at 25 degrees Celcius. The temperature of the water was measured after thermal equilibrium was reached and the final temperature of the water is 28.5 degrees Celcius. Determine the specific heat capacity of the unknown metal.

I drop an unknown quantity of Na metal in a coffee cup calorimeter that contains 150.0g if water with T initial = 23.66 Celcius. After the reaction with the metal, the temperature of the resulting solution is 34.81 Celcius. How much metal was dropped in the water for the reaction? Assume the mass of Na added to the is <<<< mass of the water used = 150.g. Assume Cw = C solution = 4.180 J/GC

a 20.94 g sample of metal is heated to 99.4 degrees Celsius in ahot water bath until thermal equilibrium is reached. The metalsample is quickly transferred to a 100.0 mL of water at 22.0 Ccontainted in a calorimeter. The thermal equilibrium temperature ofthe metal sample plus water mixture is 24.6. What is the specificheat of the metal??

This is the equation I have in my book, but I'm unsure how tocalculate it. it says specific heat is (J/ MASS (g) * T (temperature in C). There is an answer on yahoo to this, but I dontunderstand how they got to it. Please help!!
