What is the principle of Bunsen calorimeter?
bomb calorimeter is heat combustion
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 Advantages of throttling calorimeter?
An instrument utilizing the principle of constant enthalpy expansion for the measurement of the moisture content of steam; steam drawn from a steam pipe through sampling nozzles enters the calorimeter through a throttling orifice and moves into a well-insulated expansion chamber in which its temperature is measured. Also known as steam calorimeter.
Who discovered Calorimeter?
A calorimeter is an instrument that measures the amount of heat involved in a chemical reaction. The first ice-calorimeter was used by Antoine Lavoisier and Pierre-Simon Laplace, in the winter of 1782-83 .
Why is it unnecessary to know the mass of the calorimeter apparatus to determined heat capacity?
Improvised or not, the calorimeter takes up some of the heat released. The mass of the calorimeter container determines the amount of heat taken up
Will the recorded temperature change for an exothermic reaction performed in a glass calorimeter be greater or less that?
The recorded temperature change for an exothermic reaction performed in a glass calorimeter is less than the Styrofoam cup calorimeter. This is because the glass will conduct heat away more than the Styrofoam.
How would a calorimeter constant be effected if it were made of glass instead of styrofoam?
The Calorimeter Constant is the energy in joules needed to increase the calorimeter container(glass beaker or styrofoam cup) by 1 degree Celsius. Glass has a lower specific heat capacity (J/g)x(Degrees Celsius)than styrofoam. Which means it takes less energy for glass to accumulate or lose heat than it does styrofoam. Therefore a glass calorimeter will have a lower calorimeter constant due to heat(energy) escaping. In a reaction that you're trying to measure change in heat in a solution, a styrofoam cup will hold in the reactions change in heat better and therefore you will be able to calculate the energy absorbed into the cup and add it to the energy calculated in the solutions reaction, while the energy or heat absorbed in the glass will already escaping and so it will be a lesser value(calorimeter constant) that is added to the energy in the solutions reaction..... This was hard to grasp since initially i thought the energy being released from the reaction, into the glass would mean it heats up the glass more than the styro cup, and i thought that it would have more energy to be added to the energy calculated in the reaction

Can Energy be measured directly with a calorimeter?
Yes energy can be measured directly with a calorimeter. The calorimeter will measure the temperature as it changes in a reaction.

Construction of separating calorimeter for steam quality measurement?
Separating calorimeter advantages
Why 1000c thermometer is used in bomb calorimeter why not 100c?
bcoz of space in the calorimeter....
What would happened if you used glass beaker for a calorimeter instead of sytrofoam cup?
Because the glass beaker is a poor insulator, heat would be lost more rapidly. This rapid heat loss would distort the readings given.
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
In calculating the heat given off by a reaction in a calorimeter you must account for heat absorbed by?
Water and the Calorimeter.
What are the limitations of saparating and throttling calorimeter?
There must be at least 10 degrees of superheat in the calorimeter for accurate results.
