How do you use a calorimeter?
A calorimeter is used to keep heat contained in a single place as the calorimeter absorbs very little heat and the amount it absorbs can easily be calculated. To use the calorimeter heat the liquid you want (or cool) and place it in the calorimeter cup and put that in the calorimeter and place the lid on top and the thermometer in the thermometer's hole. There you go. Simple as that. A calorimeter is used to keep heat contained in a single place as the calorimeter absorbs very little heat and the amount it absorbs can easily be calculated.

What are the different types of calorimeters?
Bomb calorimeter and coffee-cup calorimeter. Both useful, however, the bomb calorimeter is better to use if you're measuring deltaH of a gas
