    From the given question, we know

    Heat capacity of the chunk of silver = 42.8 J/c

    Mass of the silver = 181 g

    Now we also know the formula for determining the specific heat of silver and that is

    Specific heat (C) = heat capacity / mass

    = (42.8/181) J/gC

    = 0.24 J/gC

    So the specific heat of the silver is 0.24 J/gC.

    With the given known facts, it is easily possible to find out the specific gravity of any substance.
