Question
a. at constant pressure.
b. in a bomb calorimeter.
c. at constant volume.
d. at constant temperature.
In a Styrofoam coffee cup calorimeter with a lid, the experiment takes place Choose one answer. The following question is from the ACS Study Guide. It would be better to ask which diagram best represents the change in enthalpy for the dissolution process. When a 90 g sample of an alloy at 100.0 degree C is dropped into 90.0 g of water at 24.9 degree C, the final temperature is 34.1 degree C. What is the specific heat of the alloy? (The specific heat of water is 4.184 J/(g degree C).)
