When measuring specific heat capacity, you’re often dealing with a controlled experiment where external factors influencing heat transfer are well documented. In this case, you can use a calorimeter ...

When substances are heated, they gain heat energy. The atoms and molecules of substances gain kinetic energy and their speed increases. The average kinetic energy of these particles is proportional to ...

As I understand it, the whole point of cooking a turkey is to take it at some temperature and then increase it to a higher temperature. Sure, maybe there's something about family togetherness in there ...

There are different ways to measure specific heat capacity. In this required practical activity, it is important to: make and record potential difference, current and time accurately measure and ...

Students learn to distinguish between heat and temperature. Thermochemistry: Students learn to distinguish between heat and temperature and to define and calculate specific heat capacity. They then ...
