An important tool in this field is the calorimeter, a device used to measure the quantity of heat released or absorbed in a physical or chemical change. A calorimeter works by having heat transfer between the substance 1 (substance being tested in a physical or chemical change) and substance 2 (substance used so heat is transferred). Usually substance 2 would be water because it has a precisely measured
