How scientists measure the invisible energy of chemical change
In short: Discover the fundamental principles of calorimetry. This video explains how we quantify the heat released or absorbed during chemical reactions and physical processes, providing a foundational look at heat capacity.
The video introduces the calorimeter as a specialized tool used to measure heat changes. By understanding how these instruments work, students can determine the heat capacity of substances and the energy dynamics of various reactions.
