Guys help with this physics problem
thermodynamics
An insulated container contains 0.5 kg of water at 50 °C. A piece of aluminum of 2 Kg at 20 °C is introduced and when the
The temperature has stabilized at 36.13 °C. What is the specific heat of aluminum?
I have been told that you could help me

q=mC(delta)T
q=-q
.5kg * 4,200 degreeC/kgMol * -13.87 degrees = 2kg * (Al heat capacity) * 16.13 degrees

Idk what unit you need Al heat capacity in, I just used what was convenient.

I fucked up the units, it's joules/kg(degreesC)
Next time ask in a general and you will get a fast answer
