19. A 300 g block of lead, with a specific heat capacity of 130 J kg$^{-1}$ K$^{-1}$, is heated to a temperature of 50$^\circ$C. It is then dropped into a well insulated beaker of water at 30$^\circ$C. Take the heat capacity of the water and beaker to be 300 J K$^{-1}$, and assume that there is no heat loss to the surroundings.Determine the heat capacity of this block of lead.
