Heat transfer as energy exchange lab data with graph and slope (0.8372).

Equipments used during experiment.

Conclusion: Halve the mass of the water will not affect the slope of the graph, it does not depends the mass of the water. The slope of the graph is the specific heat capacity of water although it's not one because the mass was not one. The physical meaning behind it would be that how much heat or energy is needed to heat up the water.
