In The Laboratory A Coffee Cup Calorimeter Or Constant Pressure Calorimeter Is Frequently Used To Determine The Spec 1 (29.16 KiB) Viewed 43 times

In the laboratory a "coffee cup" calorimeter, or constant pressure calorimeter, is frequently used to determine the specific heat of a solid, or to measure the energy of a solution phase reaction. A student heats 68.95 grams of tungsten to 99.36 °C and then drops it into a cup containing 85.11 grams of water at 22.73 °C. She measures the final temperature to be 24.60 °C. The heat capacity of the calorimeter (sometimes referred to as the calorimeter constant) was determined in a separate experiment to be 1.65 )/°C. Assuming that no heat is lost to the surroundings calculate the specific heat of tungsten. Specific Heat (W) 3/g°C.
