A 102 g piece of copper is heated in a furnace to a temperature T. The copper is then inserted into a 150 g copper calorimeter containing 194 g of water. The initial temperature of the water and calorimeter is 16°C, and the final temperature after equilibrium is established is 38°C. When the calorimeter and its contents are weighed, 1.2 g of water are found to have evaporated. What was the temperature T?

Please help with solution and explanation. thanks!
