Explanation / Answer

Use conservation of Heat: Q(hot) + Q(cold) + Q(calorimeter) = 0 mCT(hot->cold) + mCT(cold->hot) +mCT(calorimeter) = 0 Assume that the calorimeter starts at the same temperature as thewater (49.8 g)(4.18 J/gK)(30.2 - 43.6) + (50.1g)(4.18 J/gK)(30.2-21.6) +(50.8)(C)(30.2-21.6) = 0 -2789.4 J + 1800.99 J + 436.88C = 0 C (calorimeter) = 2.26 J/gK
