Solution :-
Part 1) mass of water =83.17 g
Mass of silver = 63.04 g
Temperature change of water = 25.59C – 22.31 C = 3.28 C
Temperature change of silver = 98.96 C – 25.59 C = 73.37 C
Specific heat capacity of calorimeter = 1.61 J/C
Step 1) Calculating the heat absorbed by the calorimeter and water
q (water + cal) = (m*c*delta T) + (c cal*Delta T)
=(83.17 g * 4.184 J/gC * 3.28 C)+(1.61 J/C * 3.28 C)
=1147 J
Heat given off by silver is same as heat absorbed by calorimeter and water
q cal = 1147 J
calculating the specific heat of silver
q= m*c*delta T
c= q/ (m*delta T)
= 1147 J / (63.04 g * 73.37 C)
=0.248 J/gC
Therefore the specific heat of silver is 0.248 J/goC
Part 2) mass of water =77.16 g
Temperature change of water = 32.41 C- 23.52 C =8.89 C
Mass of nickel =98.72 g
Temperature change of nickel = 98.18 C – 32.41 C = 65.77 C
Calculating the heat absorbed by water
q= m*c*delta T
= 77.16 g * 4.184 J/gC * 8.89 C
= 2870 J
Calculating heat lost by nickel
q= m*c*delta T
=98.72 g * 0.445 J/gC * 65.77 C
=2890 J
Calculating heat absorbed by calorimeter
q cal = q nickel – q water
=2890 J – 2870 J
=20.0 J
Calculating specific heat of calorimeter
c cal = q cal / Delta T
= 20.0 J / (8.89 C)
=2.25 J/C
Therefore the calorimeter constant is 2.25 J/oC

In the laboratory a "coffee cup" calorimeter, or constant pressure calorimeter, is frequently used to determine the specific heat of a solid, or to measure the energy of a solution phase reaction. Since the cup itself can absorb energy, a separate experiment is needed to determine the heat capacity of the calorimeter. This is known as calibrating the calorimeter and the value determined is called the calorimeter constant. One way to do this is to use a common metal of...
