Answer #1

Ans : True

Styrofoam cups are insulating , so that the heat released by the metal will not be exchanged with the surroundings. The metal cups are not insulating due to which heat exchange occurs with the surroundings and the change in temperature decreases. Decrease in change in temperature causes incorrectly increased value of c i.e. specific heat of aluminium.
