A calorimeter works by having a known mass of known material combust or react in an enclosed space. The calorimeter has an agent for absorption of the heat released during the process of combustion or reaction. For example, the heat absorbing agent may be water. The change in temperature of the heat absorbent along with its specific heat capacity and mass are used to compute the energy released using the equation:
Q = mCΔT

CH3CN major species present when dissolved in water
Margaret [11]

Answer: CH₃CN and H₂O.

Explanation:

1) The spieces present in a solution may be either the molecules, in case of covalent compounds, or ions, in case of ionic compounds that dissociate (ionize).

2) Both, CH₃CN and H₂O are covalent (polar covalent) substances, so they do not ionize and the spieces in the solution are the molecules per se.

3) In solution, the molecules of H₂O will solvate the molecules of CH₃CN, meaning that H₂O molecules are able to separate the molecules of CH₃N from each other, and so every molecule of CH₃CN will end surrounded by many molecules of H₂O.

This happens because the interaction between the polar molecules of the two different compounds is strong enough to overcome the intermolecular forces between the molecules of the same compound.
