There is 310 g piece of iron 180 C that is placed in 95 g aluminum calorimeter cup containing 250 g of liquid at 10 C. The final temperature is 33 C. The specific heat of iron is 450 J/kgC. The specific heat of Aluminum is 900 J/kgC. What is the specific heat of the liquid? I tried to find the final temperature of iron, but got 1800 C. I tried 4130 J/kgC but that's wrong and I'm just really con
