Copper Calorimeter

Copper Calorimeter for Specific Heat and Phase Change Measurements

The calorimeter consists of two different copper vessels (height x diameter: 75 x 50 mm and 100 x 75 mm) and a copper lid equipped with an integrated stirrer and a thermometer stopper (not included). The smaller vessel (to be placed inside the larger one) has insulated legs.

This is a useful laboratory instrument used to determine the specific heat capacity of solids and liquids, as well as the heat of fusion and vaporization.
