 The purpose of this experiment was to investigate the properties of specific heat. We used a sample of an unknown material and heated it to 50⁰C. It was placed into a cup of water and the change in temperature was recorded. This was used in the equation Q=mc∆T and we solved for the value of c.

 In this experiment, we used a simple method of measuring a material’s specific heat by measuring the difference in temperature when the heated object was placed into a cup of water.

 Unknown Substance  Styrofoam Cup  Water  Black Box  Thermometer

 1. Record the mass of the unknown substance.  2. Record the mass of a Styrofoam cup.  3. Record the mass of the water in the cup.  4. Measure the temperature of the water.  5. Heat the unknown substance to roughly 50⁰C and record the temperature.  6. Place the substance in the water and record the temperature once it hits equilibrium.

 7. Find the differences in the initial and final temperatures of both the substance and the water.  8. Use the equation Q=mc∆T and solve for c.

When using Q=mc∆T, we got various answers on all three of our tests. The average specific heat of our substance we found to be roughly 1200 J/(kg*K).

We would like to thank Mr. Walfred Raisanen for assigning this wonderful experiment. We would also like to thank ourselves for being smart enough to complete the assignment.
