When $100 \ g$ of boiling water at $100^{\circ} C$ is added into a calorimeter containing $300 \ g$ of cold water at $10^{\circ} C$,the temperature of the mixture becomes $20^{\circ} C$. Then,a metallic block of mass $1 \ kg$ at $10^{\circ} C$ is dipped into the mixture in the calorimeter. After reaching thermal equilibrium,the final temperature becomes $19^{\circ} C$. What is the specific heat of the metal in $C$.$G$.$S$. units?

  • A
    $0.01$
  • B
    $0.3$
  • C
    $0.09$
  • D
    $0.1$
