Question

Does a measurement carried out in a bomb calorimeter give a value for ∆H or ∆E? Explain.

hi everyone for this problem. It reads explain why experiments in a bomb calorie emitter results in a change in internal energy. Okay, so we're dealing with bomb cal or emitters and we want to explain why it results in a change in internal energy. So let's take a look at our answer choices here. Answer choice. A experiments in a bomb calorie emitter occurs at constant pressure. Okay, so at constant pressure, this is going to lead to a change in entropy. Okay, so this is not going to be a correct statement for B. Experiments in a bomb calorie emitter occurs at constant volume. Okay, so at constant volume, this is going to lead to a change in internal energy. So so far we see answer choice B is correct. Let's take a look at answer choice C experiments in a bomb calorie emitter occurs at constant temperature. So this statement is going to be false and this statement is false because calorie mitri involves changes in temperature. Okay, so it's not going to occur at constant temperature. So that makes anti choice C incorrect. So B is going to be our correct answer. That explains why experiments in a bomb cal or emitter occurs or results in a change in internal energy. That's it for this problem. I hope this was helpful
