Question

the following experiment was conducted to determine the heat capacity of a calorimeter.  the mass of the empty calorimeter was determined.  A quantity of cold water was added to the calorimeter after whih both the temperature and new mass were determined.  A second quantity of water was heated and its temperature was determined.  The heated water was added to the cold water in the calorimeter after which both the temperature and mass of the calorimeter plus water were determined.  All together three mass measurements and three temperature measurements were made as indicated below.  Determine..

anonymous · Answer

determine the heat capacity (in J/C) of the calorimeter from these data.  The specific heat capacity of water is 4.18 J/gC.

Mass of calorimeter: 11.33g
Mass of calorimeter + cold water: 57.33g
Temp of cold water: 23.6 degree C
Temp of heated water: 33.1 degree C
mass of calorimeter _ cold water + heated water: 102.33g
temp of mixed cold water and heated water: 28.2 degree C
