Experiment Name: Heating different liquids and heat capacity of


unknown liquid.

Assignment: To investigate temperature rise in different liquids


and determine the unknown specific heat
capacity of a given liquid

Theory: Heat capacity or thermal capacity is a measurable physical


quantity equal to the ratio of the heat added to the heat added to (or
removed) an object to the resulting temperature change. When
expressing of same phi someone as an intensive property, the heat
capacity is divided by the amount to substance, mass or volume, thus
the quantity is independent of the size or extent of the sample. heat
absorbed by the object,

Q = mw c w ∆θ

= mo c o ( θf −θi )

c o can be obtained from the equation where,

cw = Specific heat capacity of water

co = Specific heat capacity oil

mw = Mass of the water

mo = Mass of the oil

θi = initial temperature
θf = Final Temperature

∆θ = difference in temperature

Known Specific Heat Capacity


Water 4.19 j/gmk
Oil (Theoretical value) 2.40 j/gmk

Apparatus: (i) Beaker


(ii) Thermometer
(iii) Water, Kerosene Oil
(iv) Stop watch
(v) Sprit lamp
(vi) Wire Gauze

Discussion : The aim of this experiment was to investigate the heat


capacity of different liquids and determine the heat capacity of an
unknown liquid. To measure the temperature change of different liquids
after wating them to specific temperature. The specific heat capacity of a
substance of heat energy required to heat or cool a substance by a
certain temperature.

Conclusion: In conclusion, this experiment has shown that the heat


capacity of different liquids can vary greatly. Water ha the highest heat
capacity among the liquids we tested, while the unknown liquid had the
lowest. Such as in the design of heating and boiling systems for
industrial processes, and in the study of thermodynamics

Precaution:

i. The temperature should be taken after some the of heating.


ii. The temperature value should be set carefully based on the
stop watch time.
iii. Calculations should be done with care.
iv. Be careful of fire, because it is really dangerous.
