A metal block is heated to \(150^{\circ}\text{C}\) and placed in a well‑insulated container containing \(200\ \text{g}\) of water at \(20^{\circ}\text{C}\). After thermal equilibrium the temperature of the system is \(30^{\circ}\text{C}\). During the experiment the container loses a total of \(5\ \text{kJ}\) of heat to the surroundings. The specific heat capacities are \(c_{\text{metal}} = 0.45\ \text{kJ·kg}^{-1}\text{K}^{-1}\) and \(c_{\text{water}} = 4.18\ \text{kJ·kg}^{-1}\text{K}^{-1}\). Determine the mass of the metal block (in kilograms).
