What can the chemist report for the specific heat capacity of the substance?

Hello, I'm so confused on this question, can I please have a detailed explanation?


A chemist carefully measures the amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of a 261.0mg sample of a pure substance from 2.8°C to 19.5°C.

The experiment shows that 0.606J of heat are needed.

What can the chemist report for the specific heat capacity of the substance?

Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.

Hello, I don't appreciate you being rude to me. I am confused on this question and created an account to ask for help. I don't know why you are acting so rude when I'm clearly confused and in need of assistance. I'm not sure what you're asking when you say to "Please see previous questions and answers" - this is my first time on this website. I appreciate your guidance for working through the answers, but that was a horrible first impression to make on someone's first time here.
