Right, I -think- I made some progress
Assuming the specific heat capacity of copper is calculated to be 536.87
Q=m x c x delta t
therefore: Q = 0.0805 x 385 x 17
Q = 526.87
Would it then make sense to add this value to the current value of 1604.635
resulting in 2131.505?
This would seem to then...
Homework Statement
The following data is obtained:
Weight of ice cube added 20 g
Weight of copper calorimeter 80.5 g
Weight of water in calorimeter 105 g
Initial temp of ice cube -18 deg C
Initial temp of water 23 deg C
Final temp of water 6 deg C
Specific Heat Capacity copper 385 J...
