Determine specific heat of distilled water
Investigate the specific heat capacity of Water.
Part of the course: Thermal Physics β Heat, Matter & Materials
Mission
Investigate the specific heat capacity of Water.
Variables
What you change
- The Liquid
What you measure
- Liquid Temperature
What you keep constant
- Room Temperature
- Liquid Volume
- The Amount Of Heat Used
Equations
m_w = Mass of water
C_w = Specific heat of water
ΞT_w = Change in temperature for water
T_i = Temperature of water at room temperature
T_f = Temperature of water after heating
Q = Amount of heat
P = Power of kettle
t = Time of heating
Q = m_w * C_w * ΞT_w
P (watt) *t (s) = 1 Kg * C_w * (T_f - T_i)
