Lab Report: Measuring Specific Het of Mozzarella Cheese
In this Lab, the specific heat of mozzarella cheese was measured to be 2.46 (J/g °C) as a function of its temperature. The experiment was performed at 60 Celcius degree, and the specific heat was determined at the various temperatures. The measure was repeated fourth times in order to obtain the statistical error associated and the error was found as +/- 1.50
Introduction
The Specific heat is defined as the amount of energy required to raise in calories to produce a temperature change of 1C per gram of substance (J/g °C). Calorimetry is the measurement of heat energy changes. Calorimeter ...
