What is the total heat capacity of the calorimeter?

What is the heat capacity of the calorimeter if...?

  • Answer:

    Mass of calo.=50g=50/1000=0.05kg final temp.=40.5 initial temp=25 temp. of water=70 heat capacity of calo.=? Heat cap. of calo.=mass of calo.* change in temp. =0.05*(40.5-25) =0.775J Heat cap. of water=mass of water*change in temp.of water =0.03*(70-40.5) =0.885J HEAT CAPACITY OF WATER AND CALORIMETER=(O.775+0.885)J =1.66J
