Question

Students designed an experiment to determine the amount of calories in a chocolate chip cookie. A ring stand was used with a clean aluminum soda can hung from the ring that was partially filled with a known mass of water. A thermometer was placed inside the can so that it measured the temperature of the water but did not touch any part of the metal can. Once set-up was complete, an initial water temperature was taken. The cookie was then lit on fire and allowed to completely burn. A final temperature of the water was measured. Refer to the experimental set-up for calories in a chocolate chip cookie. How does this experiment allow students to measure the calories in a cookie

Answer 1

Answer:

Following are the solution to the given question.

Explanation:

Please find the graph image in the attachment file.

The heat is then transferred to water from the burned cake. The temperature difference is being used to calculate the heat energy of the cookie. Transfer of energy is the move in energy from place to place. Whereas the total quantity of energy may well be moved or converted – it is named energy preservation – does not change.
