Based on the principle of conservation of energy, the heat capacity of the calorimeter is calculated using the formula:

  • c = {m2 × w × (t2 - t1) - m2 × w × (t2 -t1)}/m3 × (t2 -t1)

<h3>What is a calorimeter?</h3>

A calorimeter is an equipment used to determine heat of reaction.

The calorimeter works on the principle of conservation of energy:

  • heat gained = heat lost

Quantity of heat energy is calculated using the formula below:

  • q = mass × heat capacity × temperature difference

In the experiment, the following procedure is followed:

  • Mass of the hot water, cold water and calorimeter are recorded
  • temperature of the hot water is recorded
  • temperature of the the cold water and calorimeter is recorded
  • final temperature of the mixture is recorded
  • heat capacity of the calorimeter is calculated using the formula: heat gained by calorimeter and cold water = heat lost by hot water.

Assuming that;

  • mass of hot water = m1
  • mass of cold water =m2
  • mass of calorimeter = m3
  • initial temperature cold water and calorimeter = t1
  • final temperature of mixture = t2
  • heat capacity of water = w
  • heat capacity of calorimeter = c

Therefore, the heat capacity of the calorimeter is calculated using the formula:

  • c = {m2 × w × (t2 - t1) - m2 × w × (t2 -t1)}/m3 × (t2 -t1)

What is it called when an enzyme changes shape
7nadin3 [17]

Answer: Induced Fit

Explanation: The process wherein the enzymes change their shape is called as induced fit. It is the precision aligning of enzymes essential for catalytic activity which is caused by the binding of the substrate as enzymes possess active sites. Hence, as the substrate approaches the enzymes, the enzyme alters its shape.
