The only thing you'd probably earn is reduced lifespan of your laptop. They're not designed to be stressed 0-24.

But if you do want to do it check out Zcoin, that's what's hot right now for most people.

As other said mining with laptop is not really recommended and not a lot of people do it so It's really hard to find some info online about mining profits for that hardware. Just download miner and get speed. Put that into some online calculator and you will see yourself
