    Marybeth Brooks Physics Lab III Specific Heat Capacity Lab May 25‚ 2011 Abstract The specific heat capacity of various metals can be calculated and compared to accepted literature values. Dropping heated metal samples into a calorimeter filled with water and then measuring the change in the temperature of the system accomplished this. The metal samples were heated in a boiling water bath and were assumed to be at 100 C when they were removed. It was added to a calorimeter and stirrer

    Ten Minutes of Specific Heat Remi Adams East Rowan High School AP Environmental Science Abstract Specific heat and climate were the primary focus of this lab. Specific heat is defined as “the measure of the ability of a substance to change temperature”. The purpose for carrying out this lab was to determine the specific heat/rates of both soil and water‚ and then comparing them. Students also were to relate specific heat to climate. Students were to determine which substance expressed

    Sameera Raziuddin Latent Heat of Fusion April 11‚ 2011         Abstract: A calorimeter‚ water at room temperature‚ ice‚ and a Pasco GLS Explorer were used in combination with a known value of the latent heat of fusion to create and carry out an experiment to determine the mass of an unknown amount of ice. Using the formula for latent heat of fusion‚ the mass of the ice was calculated to be 45.76g. The error of the carried out experiment was calculated to be 20.06%. Introduction:
