This is a worksheet with a hypothesis and method for students to carry out a practical. The practical involves burning different snacks ( I use wheat based snacks like Wotsits, Wheat Crunchies etc. as they burn best). They measure start and end temperature of a volume of water and apply this to the formula E = mcT to find out how much energy is in the different snacks.
I have used this for both the specific heat capacity and diet and exercise topics.
The structure of the worksheet models what is expected from AQA ISA candidates.
