+

This Copper Block Calorimeter can be used for the experimental determination of the specific heat capacity of copper.

The block is drilled with two holes: a large central hole, 12.5mm diameter for an immersion heater (B8A42584), and a smaller hole, 7.5mm diameter to suit a thermometer or temperature sensor.

  • Specific Heat: 480J/kg/K
  • Diameter: 44mm
  • Heat Capacity: 91
  • Mass: 1kg
  • Accuracy: ±2%
  • Thermometer Hole Dimensions: 7.5mm diameter, 72mm depth
  • Immersion Heater Hole Dimensions: 12.5mm diameter, 75mm depth

Alternative Block Calorimeters are available:

  • Aluminium - B8H25456
  • Mild Steel - B8H25444
  • Brass - B8R06813
  • Calorimeter Bundle (1 each of Copper, mild Steel, Brass, Aluminium) - B8R06830

Associated Products:

  • Calorimeter Jackets - B8R07701
  • Immersion Heater - B8A42584
  • Thermometers - B8R01905
  • Key Stage 3 Physics - Energy: Comparing amounts of energy transferred (J, kJ, kW hour)
  • Key Stage 4 Physics - Structure of Matter: Calculating energy changes involved on heating, using specific heat capacity; and those involved in changes of state, using specific latent heat.
  • Key Stage 4 Physics - Energy: Energy changes in a system involving heating, doing work using forces, or doing work using an electric current: calculating the stored energies and energy changes involved.  Power as the rate of transfer of energy.
