Question: A copper wire that has been heated to 520 C for pliability is plunged into 350 mL of water at 18 C. The final temperature

A copper wire that has been heated to 520 C for pliability is plunged into 350 mL of water at 18 C. The final temperature of the copper and water bath is 31 C. Calculate the mass of the copper wire. (specific heat capacity of copper=380 J/kg0C; specific heat capacity of water = 4180 J/kg0C)
