1. Why did you do the experiment? What was your hypothesis? 2. How were your experimental methods designed to prove or disprove your hypothesis? 3. Was your hypothesis correct or incorrect? How did the data from your experiment suggest whether they were correct or not? 4. If you made any calculations, what did they tell you? In this case, you might be able to determine the specific heat of water based on your temperature readings. 5. Why were your calculations not exactly the same as the published values? The specific heat of water is 4.18 Joules/gram*degrees C, but your value was probably slightly different... why?
You should be able to answer each of those 5 points within 1-2 sentences. You can IM me if you need more help.
