Specific Heat Capacity
Aim: To determine the specific heat capacity for an unknown metal.
Apparatus/Material: Water,
Hot plate,
Thermometer,
Wire,
Cup,
Tissue,
Beaker,
Glass rod.
Procedure: (1) Mass of metal was recorded,
(2) Metal was attached to wire and glass rod,
(3) Metal was then suspended in beaker for fifteen minutes with boiling water,
(4) Metal was removed after the fifteen minutes and placed in cup with water, the mass of the water and temperature of the water …showed first 75 words of 281 total…

…showed last 75 words of 281 total…when it was moved from its first medium to its second medium to prevent contamination of the second medium from warmer water of the first medium,
(3) Transfer of metal from medium 1 to medium 2 was as fast as possible to prevent heat lose,
(4)All reading from the thermometer was recorder at eye level.
Conclusion: The specific heat capacity of the metal is 163.33JKG ֿ¹; the nearest metal of that specific heat capacity I could find was brass.
