Calorimetry

M C delta T, that's calorimetry yo. q is energy, c is specific heat, and delta t is the change in temperature. That song was a bit disturbing, but catchy at the same time. It really helped me learn that formula though since it was so memorable. Calorimetry is a measure of heat flow. The measurements are made in an insulated apparatus called a calorimeter.
