Coffee Cup Calorimeter Heat Changes
Description
Coffee cup calorimetry measures heat changes in reactions and physical changes using an insulated calorimeter. The calorimeter is calibrated and designed to limit heat exchange with the outside environment. That makes it possible to measure the heat taken in or released by a substance more accurately, including the energy co...

Transcript
For a chemical reaction carried out under constant pressure, such as atmospheric pressure, the heat exchanged during the process is measured as the change in enthalpy ΔH. The enthalpy change for the reaction is manifested as a change in temperature, which is measured using a technique called calorimetry.
In calorimetry, the react...
