Combustion of a fuel sample in a bomb calorimeter increases the temperature of the entire system by 5.10 °C if the calorimeter contains 1700 g of water, but only by 4.00 °C if the calorimeter contains 2200 g of water. What is the heat capacity of the dry bomb calorimeter assembly? Assume that the specific heat capacity of water is 4.18 J g–1 °C–1.
Notice that the difference between the freezing and boiling point of water is 180 degrees in the
TEMPERATURE (°C)
symbol (*), followed immediately by either C or F (no spaces).
On the Fahrenheit scale:
O°F
32°F freezing point of water (equivalent to 0°C)
212°F boiling point of water (equivalent to 100°C)
Fahrenheit scale (32°F....212°F) but is 100 degrees in the Celsius scale (0°C..T00 C).
As with using the metric system, it is important in the sciences to learn to use and report
temperature readings using the Celsius scale since it is more universally used than the Fanrenniore
scale. The formulas used to convert between these two temperature scales are listed below.
When converting from°F to°C
°C= ('F - 32) 1.8
°C=5/9('F - 32)
-OR-
When converting from°C to°F
°F = (°C x 1.8) + 32
°F = (°C x 9/5) + 32
