Aims
Measure c energy to warm 1 kg by 1 °C
  • Measure ΔE and Δθ
  • Work out c
  • Explain the heat lost
c = ΔE ÷ (m × Δθ)
Finished
Your results: aluminium
Now use your ClassAdapt workbook
c = ΔE ÷ (m × Δθ)
That is the hint, not the method. Your ClassAdapt workbook has the full step‑by‑step guide: rearranging the equation, units, significant figures, and how to compare your answer with the data‑book value.
