For the reaction of one mole of zinc dust with one mole of sulphuric acid in a bomb calorimeter, 
and w correspond to
A
B
C
D
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
A
Bomb calorimeter is commonly used to find the heat of combustion of organic substances which consists of a sealed combustion chamber, called a bomb. If a process is run in a sealed container then no expansion or compression is allowed, so w = 0 and ∆ U = q . ∆ U < 0, w = 0
