금속의 비열 용량

알루미늄, 구리, 철의 열용량 비교하기

Thermochemistry Intermediate (High School) 40 분 ~$10.00

목표

혼합법으로 여러 금속의 비열 용량을 결정하고 인정된 값과 비교한다.

배경

The specific heat capacity of a metal can be determined by heating a known mass of metal to a known temperature, then transferring it to water in a calorimeter and measuring the temperature change. Energy conservation (q_metal = -q_water) allows calculation of the metal's specific heat.

안전 경고

  • Hot metals and boiling water — burn risk
  • Use tongs to transfer hot metals
  • Do not touch hot metals with bare hands

필수 개인 보호 장비

재료

  • Metal samples (Al, Cu, Fe) (50 g each)
    Cylindrical pieces work best
  • Distilled water (300 mL)
  • Boiling water (500 mL)
    For heating metals

장비

Polystyrene cup calorimeter Beaker (600 mL) Hot plate Thermometer (2) Analytical balance Tongs String

실험 절차

1

Weigh each metal sample accurately. Record masses.

3 분
2

Place all metals in boiling water for 10 minutes to reach 100°C.

12 분 Handle hot water carefully
3

Add 100 mL room-temperature water to the calorimeter. Record initial temperature.

2 분
4

Using tongs, quickly transfer the aluminum sample to the calorimeter. Stir and record max temperature.

5 분 Hot metal — use tongs
5

Calculate c(Al) = m(water)×c(water)×ΔT(water) / [m(Al)×ΔT(Al)].

5 분
6

Repeat steps 3-5 for copper and iron.

15 분
7

Compare measured values with accepted: Al=0.897, Cu=0.385, Fe=0.449 J/g°C.

5 분

예상 결과

Aluminum should give the largest temperature rise in the water (highest specific heat), followed by iron, then copper. Measured values should be within 10-20% of accepted values.

정리

Allow metals to cool completely. Dry and store. Pour water down the drain. Clean calorimeter.
