    I joule is equal to 0.238902957619 calories so 1251 joules is equal to 298.87 calories divided by 25.0 degrees centigrade is equal to 11.95 calories divided by the 35.2 gram sample weight to get the calories per gram per degree centigrade would come to 0.3396 calories/gram degree centigrade. Presumably this, if correct, could be used to obtain the metal in question by consulting a chart or table with specific heats of various metals because they should always be the same specific heat for each metal.
