Final answer:
The specific heat value closest to the experimental data in Table 9.1 indicates that the metal is copper.
Explanation:
Copper
Comparing this with values in Table 9.1, our experimental specific heat is closest to the value for copper (0.39 J/g °C), so we identify the metal as copper.
When we use calorimetry to determine the heat involved in a chemical reaction, the same principles apply.
