One way to do this is to use a common metal of known heat capacity. In the laboratory a student heats 94.51 grams of copper to 97.88 °C and then drops it into a cup containing 84.28 grams of water at 20.98 °C. She measures the final temperature to be 28.14 °C. Using the accepted value for the specific heat of copper (See the References tool), calculate the calorimeter constant. Calorimeter Constant = J/°C.

In the laboratory a "coffee cup" calorimeter, or constant pressure calorimeter, is frequently used to determine the specific heat capacity of a solid, or to measure the enthalpy change of a solution phase reaction. A student heats 66.56 g iron to 99.38 °C and carefully lowers it into a cup containing 84.64 g water at 21.17 °C. She measures the final temperature to be 26.99 °C. The heat capacity of the calorimeter (sometimes referred to as the calorimeter constant) was determined in a separate experiment to be 1.81 J/°C. Assuming that there is no heating of the surroundings calculate the specific heat capacity of iron. Specific Heat (Fe) = 0.451 J g-1 °C-1.
