Is that right? Well, I have no idea what type of rubber it is. So, I guess I'll stick with that answer. On Monday, I'll see if it's correct or at least close to being correct from my lecturer. Many thanks, for your help.

Oh, okay. I see. Many thanks, for that explanation. I got 2162 J/kg K. The answer was rounded off. Was I supposed to convert the degrees Celsius to Kelvins before I made the calculations? Because that's what I did.

Okay, I understand. Reading through your post made me realize that what you said makes more sense than what I did. There is no need to use the 26°C for the calculation of the temp. change of the rubber, right? The 32°C already has the 26°C included. And, there's no need to use the 95°C for...

My apologies, for not stating it properly. The temp. of the mixture is the temp. of the heated rubber inside the calorimeter filled with water. The temp. of the cold water is the temp. of the water inside the calorimeter alone. The temp. of the hot object is the temp. of the heated...

Hello, everyone. Homework Statement Now, I recently did an experiment in school to determine the Specific Heat Capacity of rubber using a calorimeter. We're using the mixing method to figure it out. The mass of the calorimeter, rubber and water was measured. And the S.H.C is already known...
