Using the included calorimeter, students will determine the heat of fusion of ice. Your class will also observe a demonstration of heat transfer using a radiometer and investigate heat and phase changes of matter. They’ll apply this knowledge to identify substances that conduct heat effectively, known as conductors, and those that do not, termed insulators. They will use their experiences to relate these characteristics to differences between heat and temperature. Class size - 40 students. Your students will: Study the various aspects of heat and temperature Conduct an investigation into the latent heat of fusion for ice Understand the concepts of heat flow, conservation of energy and the use of a calorimeter Use a conductometer to investigate the heat conductivity of metals Quantity: Price: $89.95 ^ return to top ^   Home   Shop Our Catalog   About Us   Great Science Tip   Contact Us   Request Catalog   Printable Forms   Specials - Promotions   Overstock Sale   Specialty E-Catalogs Nebraska Scientific  |  3823 Leavenworth Street  |  Omaha, NE 68105-1180 Phone: 800-228-7117  |  Fax: 402-346-2216 Copyright © 2009 Nebraska Scientific Website created by Web Solutions Omaha
