Discuss the meaning of the specific heat of water which is represented by the formula: specific heat of water = 1.00 cal/(g °C).
Given that 1.00 calorie is needed to increase the temperature of 1.00 gram of water by 1.00 degree Celsius, what information or data results can you use to determine how the
temperature change relates to the 'Energy transferred' to the water by the burning food sample? Explain your answer. Discuss how the word equation below provides a hint about how to calculate the 'Energy transferred' to the water by each burning food sample.
* Energy transferred to water = change in temperature × mass of water × specific heat of water
