About This Product
Water or the experimental liquid is added as the method requires, a thermometer or sensor is inserted, and a heated sample or approved heating arrangement is introduced. After gentle stirring, where a stirrer is used, students record initial and final temperatures and calculate heat transfer or specific heat capacity in this calorimeter lab work. Copper may oxidise naturally, so the vessel is dried fully after use.
