A 0.5 kg block of water at \(20^{\circ}\text{C}\) is placed in an insulated container together with a metal block of unknown mass \(m\) (in kg). The metal is initially at \(150^{\circ}\text{C}\) and has a specific heat capacity of \(0.385\ \text{J g}^{-1}\!^{\circ}\text{C}^{-1}\). After thermal equilibrium the temperature of the system is \(45^{\circ}\text{C}\). Assuming no heat loss to the surroundings, determine the mass \(m\) of the metal block (give your answer to two decimal places).
