Finding the Specific Heat of Metals Using Calorimetry
This video shows an experiment performed to find the specific heat capacities of four metal samples using calorimetry.
Try identifying each sample by calculating its specific heat and finding the best match from the list below.
Aluminum = 0.215 cal/g°C
Copper = 0.092 cal/g°C
Iron = 0.106 cal/g°C
Lead = 0.038 cal/g°C
Magnesium = 0.243 cal/g°C
Tin = 0.052 cal/g°C
Zinc = 0.093 cal/g°C
Brass = 0.09 cal/g°C
