Need some help with those question from Calorimetry: Heats of Solutions experiment
1.What
effect (larger or smaller) on the calorimeter constant calculated would be observed if the calorimeter cup were made of a conducting material (such as metal) rather than foam? Explain
2-What is the significance of the negative sign in the equation that we used to determine the calorimeter constant?
(Hint: q = – q)
