An unknown metal with a mass of $28 \mathrm{g}$ absorbs $58 \mathrm{J}$ of heat. Its temperature rises from $31.1^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ to $39.9^{\circ} \mathrm{C} .$ Calculate the heat capacity of the metal and identify it referring to Table 3.4.
If $69.5 \mathrm{~kJ}$ of heat is applied to a 1012 -g block of metal, the temperature of the metal increases by 11.4 'C Calculate the specific heat capacity of the metal in $\mathrm{J} / \mathrm{g} \quad \mathrm{C}$
