Step 1

Find the mass of a clean dry empty calorimeter (Mc)

New cards

Step 2

Half fill with wasted and find the new mass (Mc + w)

4
New cards

Step 3

By subtraction find the mass of the water (Mw)

5

Step 4

Measure the initial temperature of the water in the can (θi)

6

Step 5

When the steam has been issuing freely for ten minutes dry the delivery tube and insert it into the water in the can

Step 6

Measure the final temperature (theta f) and the ways of the calorimeter + the water + the steam (Mc +w+ s)

Step 8

Calculate the specific latent heat of vapourisation of water water from (Ms)(lvapourisation) + Ms(Cw)(delta theta s) = (Mw)(Cw) (delta theta w) + Mc(Cc) (delta theta c)
