One way to identify the composition of metal fragments found at the site of an explosion is to measure the specific heat of the fragments. Suppose a fragment is found to have a specific heat of 0.129 J/gᐧ℃. Would this information alone be enough to identify the metal in the fragment? Explain why or why not. If not, suggest a method for identifying the metal that would not require any additional equipment.
