A piece of gold (10.0 g, C Au = 0.129 J/g K) is heated to 100.0C.

Question:

A piece of gold (10.0 g, CAu = 0.129 J/g ∙ K) is heated to 100.0°C. A piece of copper (also 10.0 g, CCu = 0.385 J/g ∙ K) is chilled in an ice bath to 0°C. Both pieces of metal are placed in a beaker containing 150. g H2O at 20°C. Will the temperature of the water be greater than or less than 20°C when thermal equilibrium is reached? Calculate the final temperature
