Principle

Experimental setup to determine the heating capacities of
foodstuffs, commercially available solid fuels and gases.

Tasks


Determine the calorific values of solid foodstuffs (bread,
meat, cooked egg white, etc.)

Determine the heating values of gases (natural gas, ethane,
propane, butane, etc.)

Calculate the heating values and calorific values from the
amount of the substance burned and the amount of heat measured with
the calorimeter
