How much will the temperature of a cup (175 g) of coffee at 94.3 °C be reduced (in °C) when a 47 g silver spoon (specific heat 0.24 J/g °C) at 24.7°C is placed in the coffee and the two are allowed to reach the same temperature? Assume that the coffee has the same specific heat as water (4.184 J/g °C)
