Question

A student determined the calorimeter constant of the calorimeter, using the procedure described in this module. The student added 50.00 mL of cold water to 50.00 mL of heated, distilled water in a Styrofoam cup. The initial temperature of the cold water was 21.00 degrees celcius and of the hot water, 29.15 degrees celsius. the maximum temperature of the mixture was found to be 24.81 degrees celsius. Assume the density of water is 1.00 g mL^-1 and the specific heat is 4.184 J g^-1 K^-1.

1. Determine the Delta T for the hot water and the cold water.

2. Calculate the heat lost by the hot water.

3. Calculate the heat gained by the cold water.

4. Calculate the calorimeter constant, using the Delta T of the cold water.
