— Edser, p. 156; Ferrv Vol. 1, p. 221; Ganot, p. 451 ; Preston, p. 236; Watson, p. 249. Theory. — When a mass of cold metal is placed in an at- mosphere of steam, the temperature of the metal will rise and steam will be condensed upon the metal until the latter at- tains the temperaure of the steam. The amount of steam con- densed will be a measure of the specific heat of the metal taken, since the heat given up by the steam will numerically equal the quantity of steam condensed multiplied by t...he heat of vaporization of steam. The quantity of heat absorbed will be equal to the mass of the metal multiplied by its spec- ific heat and by its rise in temperature. These two quanti- ties are equal to each other. Knowing the heat of vaporiza- tion of steam, the specific heat of the metal can be readily determined. The Joly steam calorimeter consists of a steam chamber mounted on an adjustable stand beneath one of the arms of a sensitive balance. This chamber encloses a small scale pan which is suspended from the arm of the balance by means of a fine wire that passes down through a small opening in the top of the steam chamber.
