====== Calculating Specific Heat ======

===== The  Prompt =====

**"Calculate the specific heat of 1 mol of water."**

===== Context =====

This [[strategy:smallwhiteboard:|SWBQ]] ...

===== Wrap Up =====

After being shown the equipartition theorem for solids, this calculation is a good exercise to see if students can effectively use the internal energy to find the specific heat of a material at room temperature. The answer to this problem will also give the common value seen for the specific heat of water at room temperature. FIXME - Extra Information
