What is calorimetry?

Calorimetry is the science or act of measuring changes in state variables of a body for the purpose of deriving the heat transfer associated with changes of its state.

We want to calculate the heat required to heat 10 grams of water by 10 °C.

  • Step 1. Determine the amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water by 1 °C.

This magnitude is known as the specific heat. The specific heat of water is 1 cal/g.°C.

  • Step 2. Multiply this number by 10 grams and 10 °C.

Q = 1 cal/g. °C × 10 g × 10 °C = 100 cal

The calories needed to raise the temperature of 10 grams of water by 10 °C is D. 100 cal.
