How can specific heat values be used to compare how different substances change temperature when they absorb or release the same amount of thermal energy?
Learning Target
I can use the specific heat equation (q = m·c·ΔT) to calculate the heat absorbed or released by a substance and explain how the calculated values relate to its ability to resist temperature change.
17b. Lab - Specific Heat 1. Get a copy of the "Specific Heat" Lab exercise. 2. Read through the Laboratory Exercise and ask any questions when Mr. Rice reviews the instructions. 3. Review the [Lab Job Opportunities List] and decide on (2) possible positions you would like to perform during the laboratory exercise. 4. Using the[Chem Team List], find your roster number, lab station and go meet your classmates. At the lab station, choose a job, and work on the lab as a team.
