the reaction heat. This is used for reactions intended to run at a variable temperature or
to find the maximum heat released by a reaction.

7. Some heat is always lost to the container in an adiabatic calorimeter, but a correction
factor is applied to the calculation to compensate for heat loss. This type of calorimeter
is used to study runaway reactions.
(0/1 Points)

a) Calorimetry
b) Reaction calorimeter
c) Adiabatic calorimeter

8. This type of calorimeter relies on a three-dimensional fluxmeter sensor made of

rings of thermocouples in series. This type of calorimeter allows for a larger sample
size and reaction vessel size, without sacrificing the accuracy of the measurement.

a) Bomb Calorimeter

b) Constant-pressure calorimeter

c) Calvet-type calorimeter

9. The body at higher temperature releases heat while the body at lower
temperature do not absorbs heat. The principle of calorimetry indicates the law of
conservation energy, i.e. the total heat lost by the hot body is equal to the total
heat gained by the cold body.
