SHC
is the
energy
required
to
raise
the
temperature
of
1KG
of a
substance
by
1
degree
What are the
steps
for the
SHC
practical
Measure
mass of
metal
block
or
water
in a
beaker
Place
an
electrical
heater
in
the
metal
block
/
water
Measure
the
initial
temperature
of the substance
using
a
thermometer
Turn
heat
on
and
start
the
timer
and
measure
p.d
and
current
supplied
to heater
using
voltmeter
and
ammeter
After
set
time
,
measure
