How are specific heat of water and ice the same?
That is how specific heat is defined. When you measure something you have to measure it relative to some point of reference. In specific heat it was agreed upon that water was to be the standard and its specific heat would be one. Therefore everything else is measured relative to water.
without heat from the sun the water cycle would?
Without heat from the sun the water cycle would not work .
In Lei's experiment one step of the procedure requires her to bring some water to a boil. Which two pieces of equipment should Lei use to carry out this step?
Well, you would need something to hold the water and something to heat the water...
If the water continue to heat what would be its next phase?
if the water continued to heat it will become gas
What is kcal used to measure?
1 cal is the energy used to heat 1 g of water by 1K

Which combinations of equipment would be needed to bring one liter of water to 85 degrees celsius?
To heat one liter of water to 85c you will need a heatproof container that will hold one liter. You will also need Bunsen burner to heat the water and a thermometer to see when itâ??s reached 85c.
If there was an opposite of heat what would it be?
Heat is the measure of something hot or cold.
How would heat transfer occur in water in a pot?
water would heat up
Is a calorie a measure of mechanical energy?
No, it measures the ammount of heat output that would heat a millilitre of water 1 degree Celsius. So if you were to burn 1000 calories of energy, it would heat one millilitre 1000 degrees Celsius or it would heat 1 litre 1 degree Celsius.
What equipment would you need to heat a small amount of solid strongly?
oven
What piece of lab equipment would not be needed to heat a solution?
A Bunsen Burner
What does a calorimeter use the increase in water temperature for?
Measure the heat given up to the water by another substance
What oes thermometer mesure?
you would measure heat with a thermometer
What would you measure with a Scoville?
Heat content of hot peppers
without heat from the sun the water cycle would?
Without heat from the sun the water cycle would not work .
How do you measure conduction of heat?
Heat, as distinct from temperature, can only be measured using a medium, ie a substance of known specific heat. Then by measuring its temperature the amount of heat can be calculated. Water is the easiest to use, at least up to its boiling point, and by definition, a rise of 1 deg C per gram of water is 1 calorie. One of the most frequent needs to measure heat is in power stations or industrial processes which use water or steam. If you are working out heat flow using steam you have to use steam tables which are calculated giving the heat content per unit mass of steam at various pressures and temperatures. Sometimes you would need to measure heat flows in other fluids, such as at an oil refinery, then you would have to know the specific heat (that is the heat per degree of temperature) of the fluid being handled.
