Principle

Calorimetry can be used to determine the temperature of a body that would be difficult to measure in any other way, for example, because it is too hot for the available thermometers. The heat content of the body can be calculated from the mixing temperature that is set in the calorimeter. This results in the desired temperature if the heat capacity of the body is known.

Benefits

  • Particularly understandable and didactically prepared description of the experiment (relevance to everyday life etc.) including protocol questions
  • Future-oriented teaching: Integration into digital science lessons with tablets
  • Increased motivation of students by using the intuitive measureAPP
  • Increase of media competence

Tasks

The students determine the initial temperature of a metal block heated over a flame. To do this, they measure the temperature curve as the metal block cools down in the calorimeter.

Learning objectives

The students get to know calorimetry as a method for measuring temperature.
