Question

What is calorimetry state the principle of calorimetry?

Answer 1

The principle of calorimetry is to make a quantifiable measurement of the amount heat energy transferred in a system and its relation to temperature. The principle of calorimetry departs from the classical view point that heat is composed of a fluid called “caloric” which flows from a relatively hotter body to the colder body. The idea that heat energy is a measurement of change in temperature of the body was evolved at a much later time after a series of experiments were conducted using instruments called calorimeters.

Answer 2

Explanation:

Calorimetry is the science or act of measuring changes in state variables of a body for the purpose of deriving the heat transfer associated with changes of its state due, for example, to chemical reactions, physical changes, or phase transitions under specified constraints. Calorimetry is performed with a calorimeter.
