The calorimetry experiment is usually done to determine the heat capacity of the sample. The working equation would be:
Q = mCpΔT
Q is the energy
m is the mass of sample
Cp is the heat capacity
ΔT is the temperature
So, if the thermometer is too high, then that would affect ΔT, which would make it greater. Consequently, you would calculate a much lesser heat capacity of the sample compared to the theoretical value.
Is there multiple choice?
A. Scientific results presented by a scientist should be reproducible anywhere in the world, without this, the results can not be accepted as theory.
Answer:
An oxidizing agent (also called an oxidizer or oxidant) is referred to as a chemical compound that readily transfers oxygen atoms or a substance that gains electrons in a redox chemical reaction.
