If the blade has a mass of 80 g, what is the minimum amount of water needed at 20°C if the water is to remain liquid and not rise above 100°C when the hot blade is quenched in it? The specific heat of the steel is 0.11 cal/g ? C° and the specific heat of water is 1.0 cal/g ? C°. A) 22 g
B) 33 g
C) 44 g
