Answer:
The CO2 Extinguisher Cannisters contain carbon dioxide in liquid form, and when the extinguisher is let off the liquid is released into the air neutralising the oxygen that the fire is feeding on, disabling the fires ability to spread.
Answer:
I would use calorimetric to determine the specific heat and I would measure the mass of a sample
Explanation:
I would use calorimetry to determine the specific heat.
I would measure the mass of a sample of the substance.
I would heat the substance to a known temperature.
I would place the heated substance into a coffee-cup calorimeter containing a known mass of water with a known initial temperature.
I would wait for the temperature to equilibrate, then calculate temperature change.
I would use the temperature change of water to determine the amount of energy absorbed.
I would use the amount of energy lost by substance, mass, and temperature change to calculate specific heat.
