Determination of the specific heat of the test object material considering the heat capacity of the calorimeter cup

Determine the specific heat of the substance using the calorimetric method, taking into account the heat capacity of the inner cup of the calorimeter.

Test data

Test object mass $m_{k}$ ( $k g$ )
Mass ( $k g$ ) of the aluminum calorimeter cup
Total mass of cold water and calorimeter cup ( $k g$ )
Mass of cold water $m_{v}$ ( $k g$ )
Specific heat of water ( $\frac{J}{k g \cdot^{\circ} C}$ )
Specific heat of aluminum ( $\frac{J}{k g \cdot^{\circ} C}$ )
Initial temperature of cold water $t_{v 1}^{\circ}$ ( $^{\circ} C$ )
Initial temperature of the test object (hot water temperature) $t_{k 1}$ ( $^{\circ} C$ )
The final temperature of the cold water and the test object $t^{\circ}$ ( $^{\circ} C$ )
