Heat capacity

Postby mayapartha_1D » Sun Jan 28, 2018 10:46 pm

Does anyone know if there are heat capacities we must know/memorize? Such as the heat capacity of water, etc.

No, any heat capacities, along with any relevant constants/equations, will be provided to us with every test on an equations sheet.

I think that specific heat capacities will be given in the constants and formulas sheet or be mentioned in the question.

Yeah, I agree with the people above. Memorizing heat capacities or just numbers outright isn't a proper indicator of our understanding of the material or at least I'd hope so.

No, I am assuming Professor Lavelle is proving those
