A 22.1g piece of aluminum (which has a molar capacity of 24.03 J/oC.mol) is heated to 82.4oC and dropped into a calorimeter containing water (specific heat capacity of water is 4.18J/goC) initially at 22.3oC. The final temperature of the water is 25.8oC. Ignoring significant figures, calculate the mass of the water in the calorimeter.
