Calorimetry: Laboratory Measurement of Heats of Reaction

23

• The amount of heat released or absorbed by a system is related to  its temperature change and its heat capacity.

Specific Heat Capacity of Substances

• Experience shows that the more heat an object absorbs, the higher  its temperature becomes.

• Heat capacity is the proportionality constant in the equation:
