Describe how you could determine the specific heat of a sample of a solid substance. You may assume
that the substance does not react with water. In your answer, make sure to include a description of what
equipment you would use and how you would interpret the data you collected.

a 20-cm-long, cylindrical graphite (pure carbon) rod is inserted into an oxidizing atmosphere at 1145 k and 1.013 x 105 pa pressure. the oxidizing process is limited by the diffu- sion of oxygen counterflow to the carbon monoxide that is formed on the cylindrical surface.

c) should be the answer.
