Table 2: Simulation Data Post-laboratory Questions:

1. When the solid is placed in water, how is the heat being transferred? Which is gaining heat? Which is losing heat? Sketch the Temperature vs time graph for any of the trials.

2. What observations can be made about the heat of water(qwater) and heat of the solid (qsolid) within a given trial?

3. Use Trials 1 and 2 to determine how the mass of a solid affects the change in temperature and the amount of heat transferred.

4. Use Trials 1 and 3 to determine how the mass of water affects the change in temperature and the amount of heat transferred.

5. Which has a greater effect on the amount of heat transferred: the mass of the solid or the mass of the water? Why?

6. Use Trials 1 and 4 to determine how the specific heat capacity affects the change in temperature and the amount of heat transferred.

7. In trials 5 and 6, calculate the amount of heat absorbed by the water. How does this amount of heat compare to the amount of heat given off by the metal? Use the information given to solve for the specific heat capacity
