Introduction
Dated back as far as ten thousand years ago, copper has been used for decorative
and serviceable purposes. It was used for jewelry and tools before gold was discovered
(Copper in the USA). Today, the metal is used for more practical services such as wires,
roofing, and plumbing. All of these items can be made out of copper because it is a
durable metal that does not corrode easily, and is a good conductor of heat and electricity.
In fact, compared to other common metals, copper has the best electrical conductivity
explains how it can be made into wires. Other metals also have an orange-red hue, so
unknown metal using the intensive property of linear thermal expansion, so the mass of
the metal would not affect the outcome. Linear thermal expansion is the tendency of a
metal when heated up to expand by a certain volume. To find the linear thermal
expansion coefficient, the rods were placed in boiling water for five minutes, and then
quickly placed into a jig that measured the change of length as the rods cooled. The
temperature of the water and air was taken and assumed to be the temperature of the rod
when it was boiling and cooled, respectively. These values were then calculated to find
Knowing this, a percent error was calculated comparing the copper rods and the unknown
rods to this value. The separate coefficients that were calculated were then compared

This research can be used in a practical sense as a model for determining the
identities of other unknown metals. The data can also be used to compare if a similar
experiment was conducted, as the scientists were comparing the metal’s linear coefficient
to copper.
when designing car engines. The coolant that goes in the radiator of the car is used to
keep the engine from overheating and thus damaging the car. This coolant expands when
heated, and the radiator must be large enough to accomodate for the expansion, so the
coolant does not overflow (“Thermal Expansion”). This is when linear thermal expansion
comes into play. Another example involves wooden doors. The wood, during an increase
in temperature, expands and starts to adhere to the door frame. This often happens in the
summertime. In the winter, the wood cools and shrinks so it is much easier to open and
close. The expanding and shrinking of the door is due to linear thermal expansion. The
developers of the doors must take the expansion into account when assembling the doors,
Copper is a transition metal, and a malleable metal with an orange hue when
looked at; see Figure 1 as an example. The metal is a good conductor of energy, which
means it can easily transmit energy or heat. Copper also resists erosion by different acids,
so it is often used to make wires and pipes (Clark). Linear thermal expansion (LTE) can
calculating the length change that the metal went through after a known amount of heat
was taken away from it, the coefficient of the unknown metal’s LTE was found. From
this, the researchers verified whether or not the metal was copper (Clark).

increases in temperature, the molecules that make up the substance begin to gain thermal
energy. As stated in the First Law of Thermodynamics, this energy can then be
destroyed. The Kinetic Molecular Theory states: as these molecules gain kinetic energy,
Elias-Hahn-Jacob 4
they will begin to vibrate at a greater rate, which results in more space between the
molecules. In turn, the substance increases in size as heat is added, as seen in Figure 2.
As heat is added or removed from a substance, the substance will change in length
accordingly. LTE is an intensive property, meaning the value does not change depending
on the sample size. This makes it a reliable method for determining the identity of an
The figure above represents the arrangements of particles before and after the
heating of the metal. This difference in arrangement of particles is what was measured in
the experiment.
In the following experiment, the unknown metal was placed in boiling water until
equilibrium was reached between both. Then, the rod was taken out, and the reduction in
size was measured as it cooled. Once the average reduction in size was found, the
coefficient of LTE was calculated. Since the changes in temperature and length were

In the equation for LTE, ΔL represents the change in length. Αlpha, represents the
temperature. Once the trials were finished, and the coefficient for LTE was calculated, it
was compared to coppers’ coefficient of LTE, 17 mm/ ℃ fractional change in size. This
value means as the copper’s temperature increased by one degree, the length of the solid
copper increased by one unit. This is low compared to other substances like water, which
has a coefficient of LTE of 1.2104. Since water is a liquid, the coefficient of LTE is
higher because the molecules already have more energy than solid copper, so it takes less
Many experiments concerning the idea of the LTE of copper have been
conducted. One experiment had tested the thermal conductivity and expansion of
thermal expansion of the composites in this experiment. Even though copper-graphite has
slight variance in properties from pure copper, this could assist in determining whether or
not the unknown metal was copper. This experiment expresses an understanding that
copper should not expand a significant amount, and the coefficient should be be rather
low. Another experiment tested the LTE of high-conductivity copper tough-pitch. This
experiment had found that the “different conductivities of copper had similar thermal
expansions and not much variance, which suggests that in the experiment conductivity of
the metal does not play a significant role.” (Kroeger, Fredrick Robert). This experiment

Data:
Throughout the span of three days, 60 different trials were performed. For the
known metal rods, copper, 30 trials were conducted and 30 more were conducted for the
unknown metal rods. This was done so later, when the results were interpreted, the law of
large numbers would be applied and the sampling distribution would be normal.

This could mean that the precision of the trials were off.
Observations:
Throughout the duration of the trials, observations were taken that included the jig
and caliper number. The trials that were not completely normal were also noted in the
observations. There are two separate tables: one for the copper metal rods and one for the

In Table 3 above, the observations for each trial of the copper rods can be seen. It
should be noted that in trials three and four, the time to get into jig was longer than
normal and in trial four, there were only two researchers present. This is due to the fact
that researcher one burnt their hand, and the routine through the trial may have been

Trials Observations
In Table 4 above, are the observations for the 30 unknown trials. In some of the
trials, there were irregularities in the data. Note in trials seven and eight, the metal rod
was not completely submerged for the entire duration of the trial. This may have affected
the internal temperature of the rods which would affect the length it expands. There were
also some caliper issues later in the trials, where the caliper was not acting regularly, and
To determine whether or not the two metals were the same, a two sample t-test
was conducted. Before this could happen, the validity of the data should be established.
To start, the control in this experiment was the copper metal rods. The researchers did the
same number of trials for the copper rods as the unknown rods to make sure the data was
reliable. The researchers finished thirty for each in the time allotted. This allowed for the
Central Limit Theorem to be applied. The Central Limit Theorem states that as the
sample size grows larger, the sampling distribution becomes more normal. Thirty is the
minimum to apply the law of large numbers. Throughout the trials, the jig that was used
and caliper that measured the rods were randomized. The researcher that did each job was
also randomized. This is done to reduce bias in the experiment. The percent error was
also calculated for each trials, and can be seen in Table 1. Percent error can be calculated
In this case, the theoretical value is 17 as that is the alpha coefficient for copper
and what the experimental data is being compared to. A sample calculation can be found
in Appendix A.

In Table 5 above, the individual percent error for each trial of the copper metal
rods are shown. The average of percent error of the unknown rod’s LTE coefficient was
39.585% at the bottom. The range of the percent error for the unknown metal rods was
24.294%. For the copper rods, the average was 20.737% and the range was 16.836%.
This variance can suggest that the procedures were performed inconsistently or mistakes
were made that skewed the data. The percent error was calculated as the trials were being
run, and if the percent error was larger than normal, adjustments were made in the trials.
For example, the rods were hot when coming out the boiling water, and that often heated
the jigs up. When the jig was already warm, the metal rods did not cool down adequately,
therefore the researchers gave time for the jigs to cool down before running another trial.

The figure above describes the one variable statistics for both the copper, and the
unknown metal. These values are used in the box plots below to determine if there are
any outliers in the data, and if the data is skewed. The sample standard deviation can be
Another example of descriptive statistics is a box plot. A box plot can be helpful
in analyzing the data, and the box plot below shows the data for copper and the unknown
metal.
Elias-Hahn-Jacob 21
The box plots, as seen in the figure above, have very little overlap. The minimum
alpha coefficients for copper overlap a portion of the maximum alpha coefficients for the
unknown metal. Since the means of each are larger than the medians, it was determined
that both box plots are right skewed. Visually, no outliers can be seen. Being right
skewed suggests most of the data collected lies on the left side of the box plot. There are
no outliers suggesting that there had been little inconsistency in the experiment. The five
number summary can also be seen above. The true LTE coefficient of copper is about 17,
which can be seen on this box plot. Each plot is much farther left than the accepted value.
As there were thirty trials that were finished, the issue of normality is not relevant.
As stated earlier, this is due to the Central Limit Theorem and that the sampling
distribution of the data will appear normal. Throughout the trials there were some
inconsistencies as noted in the observations table, Table 1, noted earlier. For example,
Elias-Hahn-Jacob 22
when only two researchers were present, there may have been extra stress. This may have
To determine if the two metals were the same, a two sample t test was conducted.
This test is relevant because it compares the mean of two separate samples from different
populations. The samples are the metal rods, and the population is the type of metal:
either copper or unknown. The current difference between the two average linear thermal
coefficient is 3.204. To conduct the test, certain conditions must be met first. Both
samples must be simple random samples; both samples must be normally distributed or
have a sample size of thirty or greater; both samples must be less than 0.1 of the
population. It can be assumed the rods are made of random samples of each metal. Each
sample also had a sample size of thirty, as seen in the data and observations section.
There was also much more copper than the two small rods, and it can be assumed there
was more of the unknown metal as well. The conditions of the test were met, so it could
be performed. To start, the null hypothesis and alternative hypothesis are stated below.
The hypotheses above state that the mean of the linear coefficient of the known
copper rods was equal to the mean of the linear thermal expansion coefficient of the
unknown metal rods. The null hypothesis states that the mean of the copper and unknown
metals were the same. The alternative hypothesis states that the means of the linear
coefficients were not equal. The two sample t-test was appropriate because it compared
Elias-Hahn-Jacob 23
two separate means, the mean of the alpha coefficient of the copper and unknown metals.
The formula is found in Appendix A along with a sample calculation. The resulting t test
value was 12.1237, which represents the standard deviations away from the true mean.
The resulting t value was then used to find the P-value. The t test resulted in a
P-value of 7.9482 * 10-17. This value represents the chance of the two metals’ coefficients
difference being this extreme if the null hypothesis was true. This value was compared to
the alpha level of 0.05. The P-value was less than the alpha level, which suggests that the
alpha coefficients of the two metals were not the same. As a result of this, the null
hypothesis was rejected. There was convincing evidence to suggest the rods have
different linear thermal expansion coefficients. The P-value of 7.9482 * 10-17 means
there was a 7.9482 * 10-17 %, much less than the alpha level of five percent, chance of
getting a mean difference of 3.204 mm/°C*10-6 between the copper and unknown metal
To find the 95% confidence interval for the true difference of the means of linear
thermal expansion coefficient, a two sample t interval was conducted. The same
conditions apply as did to the two sample T-test, therefore the confidence interval could
freedom was 29 as the sample size was 30 and the confidence interval being conducted
was 95%. The resulting 95% confidence interval was from 2.6825 to 3.7255. The
researchers were 95% confident the interval from 2.6825 to 3.7225 captures the true
difference of means between the copper and unknown metals linear thermal expansion
coefficient. The difference range of the coefficients in this experiment was 3.3433,
Conclusion
The experiment was conducted between two copper metals and two unidentified
metals to determine whether or not the unknown metal was copper using the intensive
property of linear thermal expansion. Initially, it was hypothesized that the unknown
metal would be found to be copper with a percent error of 2% of its coefficient of linear
thermal expansion (LTE) of 17*109 mm/m*℃. After conducting the trials, calculating the
LTE coefficients, and conducting statistical tests, the hypothesis was rejected, and the
unknown metal was found not to be copper. The researchers were able to compare the
intensive LTE coefficients to determine if the unknown metal rod was copper. The
results of the two sample t-test and the analysis of box plots suggested that the two metals
had different LTE coefficients, which further suggests that they were different metals.
This experiment compared two copper rods and two rods of the unknown metal.
The specified metal’s length was measured and the rod was placed into boiling water for
5 minutes. Once the allotted time passed, the metal was taken out of the boiling water and
put into the LTE jig. This instrument then measured the change in length over a 5 minute
period as the metal rod cooled. The change in temperature and length was recorded, then
was used to calculate the LTE coefficient. To determine if the metal rods were the same,
researchers used descriptive statistics and statistical tests to compare data collected. The
two sample t-test conducted resulted in a p-value of 7.9482 × 10-17. This means there was
a 7.9482 × 10-17 percent chance of the two metals’ coefficients difference being this
extreme if the hypothesis, that they have the same coefficient, was true. This p-value was
significantly less than the base level alpha value of 0.05. This suggested that the two
Elias-Hahn-Jacob 26
metal rods were not the same, and therefore did not support the hypothesis. Due to the
precision and accuracy of the trials and experimental design, it can be assumed that the
LTE is tendency of a material to change its length when heat is added to it. Each
element has it own LTE coefficient, 𝜶, which is an intensive property, meaning the mass
of the material does not affect the coefficient. This is why the coefficient can be used to
compare separate metals of different sizes as done in this experiment. LTE occurs
because as the element gains thermal energy, the particles that make up the element begin
to increase their kinetic energy; this is known as the kinetic molecular theory. The atoms
begin to move more and need more space, which causes the expansion of the material. In
this experiment, the two metals expanded differently, which caused their coefficient to be
different. This is what was compared to determine the metals were not the same.
Other experiments conducted with LTE and copper suggest that the results were
consistent with additional research done on the topic. An experiment that had tested the
Meaning that if the unknown metal was not copper, it would have a dramatically lower
LTE coefficient, which aligned with the results from this experiment. Another
experiment, conducted by Kroeger, Fredrick, and Robert, concluded that linear thermal
expansion is not affected by neither the size nor conductivity of the metal. This further
Elias-Hahn-Jacob 27
suggested that the unknown metal was not copper because, as this experiment discovered,
these properties would have little effect on the coefficients of the data collected.
Mistakes were made during the trials that may have affected the data. As seen in
table 3 trials three and four, an example of these mistakes can be seen when the
researcher who put the metal rod into the jig took longer to get the metal into the jig than
previous trials. The metal started to cool immediately after it was removed from the
boiling water, so speed and efficiency was critical when transferring the rods into the
LTE jigs. The time difference could have made the difference between a 0.9 difference in
length compared to a 0.13 difference. In table 4 trial 22, the researchers left the metal
rods in longer than the allotted five minutes. There was a greater change in internal
thermal temperature when the rod was left longer than five minutes and allowed to
accumulate more heat than in previous trials. More kinetic energy could have been gained
leading to a greater expansion which could have altered the LTE coefficient.
There can be steps taken to further the research on the LTE of copper, which can
include changes can be made in the experimental design. If multiple unknown metal rods
were to be compared to the known copper rod, it would result in a more accurate true
value of the unknown metal’s LTE coefficient because of the added data. Additionally, if
the metal rods were left in the boiling water for a longer period of time, a greater
expansion may have occurred, which may yield slightly different results. Furthermore, if
the experiment was to be conducted again, more than one known metal could be
compared to the unknown metal to further determine the identity of the metal. Then, the
Elias-Hahn-Jacob 28
unknown metal could possibly be identified as another metal or, at the very least, more
metals could be eliminated from the list of possible elements the unknown rods could be.
This data can be used for further research in the future. By using this method to
find and compare the LTE coefficients of different metals, future researchers would have
a fairly straightforward method to determine if metals are the same or not. By using this
experiment, forensic scientists will have a method of identifying the unknown metal in a
victim’s body as copper. This experiment could help finally determine why a metal that
To determine whether the unknown rods were in fact copper, the coefficients for
linear thermal expansion were calculated. To find the linear thermal expansion

To determine if the unknown metal is copper, or if the known rods possess the

The figure above is a sample calculation of the percent error for Trial 1.
To determine if the means are different from the two independent groups, the
known trials and unknown trials, a two sample t-test must be conducted. To use this
equation, we must take the difference of the mean from the known rods, x₁ , and the
mean off the unknown rods, x₂ . After finding this difference, divide it by the square root
of the standard deviation for the first sample, s1 , squared divided by the size of the
sample for the first population, n1, plus the standard deviation for the first sample, s2 ,
