1. Calculate the change in temperature for each test and fill in the table. (3 marks)
2. It takes 4.2 Joules of energy to raise the temperature of 1mL of water by 1 ˚C. So, calculate the heat
energy gained by your test tubes and fill this value into your table. Your answer will then be in
Joules (J). This is the energy released by the burning food. (3 marks)
3. Graph your results by creating a line graph with Amount of Energy (J) and Change in Temperature
(˚C) (4 marks)
4. What can you infer about the amount of energy in the food samples from the change in temperature?
(1 mark)
