Explanation :

In thermodynamics, a system is region or part of space which is being studied and observed while the surrounding is the region or space around the system which interacts with the system.

Here in the experiment ,system which is observed is reaction or changes when citric acid and sodium bicarbonate are mixed together. And the mixing is carried out in the calorimeter which serves as a surrounding around the system.

The reason behind the using the calorimeter is measure the energy change occurring during the reaction.

What is meant by the statement "energy is quantized"?
Sveta_85 [38]

That means that the amount of energy can only be certain numbers, as if
energy came in tiny packets, and the in-between amounts don't exist.

Another example of a measurement in nature that is quantized is
electric charge.

A 25.0 g block of a metal alloy at 100 C is dropped into an insulated flask containing 110 g of ice; 5.30 g of the ice melted. W
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

0.00353J/g/°C

Explanation:

I will assume the temperature of the ice to be approximately 0°C.

Moreover, Heat of fusion of water is 6kJ

Amount of heat used to melt 5.3g of ice = 5.3 x 6 / 18

=1.767g°C

Therefore

1.767 = 25 x specific heat cap. x 200

Specific heat cap. = 1.767/(25x200)

= 0.00353J/g/°C
