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.

What is a calorimeter and why is it useful in scientific research?

A calorimeter comes in different forms, but it is a device that allows you to contain a substance and burn it. The released energy from the compound is then released within the calorimeter, and through changes in temperature of the calorimeter and water that usually surrounds the substance, scientists can calculate the joules of energy released by the substance which will be near equivalent except for lost energy to the total energy contained within a substance. This is how you get calorie measurements in the food you eat. A sample calorimetry test is done and applied to all the same type of food.

What substance is the temperature at which it changes from a solid to a liiquid?

The temperature at which a solid changes to a liquid is the melting point.


Why the brass need to be immersed in the boiling water before place it in the calorimeter?

The brass needs to be immersed in the boiling water for a sufficient enough time that its temperature is the same as the boiling water, 100 degrees Celsius. That will be the initial temperature of the brass. After it is quickly placed in the calorimeter which will contain much cooler water, causing the brass to cool down and the water to heat up until the point where the temperature no longer changes. At that point the temperature of the brass is the same temperature as the water in the calorimeter, which is its final temperature of the brass.


What changes during melting?

The substance absorbs the heat of fusion. The temperature does not go up, but the form of the substance changes.
