Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The variation in the results of the experiment has to be given if the reaction was endothermic.
Concept Introduction:
Calorimetry can be defined as the measurement of changes in heat.
Two types of Calorimetry are coffee cup calorimeter and bomb calorimeter.
The change in heat of the system can be determined with the value of the heat capacity of the calorimeter.
The heat capacity of the calorimeter can be given as,
Exothermic and Endothermic reactions:
Heat is flow of thermal energy involving two bodies at various temperatures. The flow of thermal energy involving two bodies at various temperatures is called as heat. The flow of heat implies that energy is either released or absorbed on describing about energy changes that takes place during a process.
Exothermic process is the chemical process in which heat is released to the surroundings.
Endothermic process is the chemical process in which heat is absorbed from the surroundings.

Energy and the First Law of Thermodynamics: We have discussed in the previous discussion the connection of energy with the first law of thermodynamics. From this point, we are interested to calculate the change in internal energy of the system and determine whether the process is endothermic or exothermic: (a) A balloon is cooled by removing 0.655 kJ of heat. It shrinks on cooling, and the atmosphere does 382 J of work on the balloon. (b) A 100.0-g bar of gold is heated from 25 °C to 50 °C during which it absorbs 322 J of heat. Assume the volume of the gold bar remains constant. (c) The surroundings do 1.44 kJ of work compressing gas in a perfectly insulated cylinder.arrow_forward
