2. Measure the mass of the metal with the scale.
3. Drop metal into boiling water, and let it sit for for about five minutes.
4. Place the two styrofoam cups inside each other.
5. Measure the mass of the calorimeter, and then fill it ¾ full of room temperature water. Measure the mass again, and determine the water’s mass by subtracting the mass of the calorimeter from the total.
6. Calibrate thermometer as in experiment 2.1, then quickly take metal out of the pot and place it in the calorimeter.
7. Stir the water carefully with the thermometer and periodically read the temperature without lifting it out of the water. Continue until the temperature stop increasing, and then write
