II. A chemistry student stowed away on the USS Coca Cola bound for Colón, Panama (Panama per capita is noW the third largest consumer of Coca Cola beverages worldwide). Aboard the ship, she decided to do an experiment to determine the calorimeter constant (not much to do at sea) using a procedure identical to the one detailed in our methodology. The only difference was that she did not have access to distilled water so, being at sea, she used ocean water which her handy CRC Handbook* reported has a density of 1.025 g/mL and specific heat (Cp) equal to 3.85 J/ °C. The temperatures below were determined graphically, extrapolated to the time of mixing. Cold Ocean Water 50.00 mL 17.7°C Warm Ocean Water 50.00 mL 38.8 °C Combined Ocean Sample 100.0 mL 26.8 °C
