Describe how you could determine the specific heat of a sample of a solid substance. You may assume
that the substance does not react with water. In your answer, make sure to include a description of what
equipment you would use and how you would interpret the data you collected.

chemical changes occur when a substance combines with another to form a new substance, called chemical synthesis or, alternatively, chemical decomposition into two or more different substances. these processes are called chemical reactions and, in general, are not reversible except by further chemical reactions. some reactions produce heat and are called exothermic reactions and others may require heat to enable the reaction to occur, which are called endothermic reactions. understanding chemical changes is a major part of the science of chemistry.
