Solution

The correct option is A True
A calorimeter is a device used to measure heat during chemical reactions or physical changes. It has two vessels, an inner and an outer one and both are insulated from each other. Insulation is done to minimize the temperature loss from the system(calorimeter) to the surroundings(air) over time which helps in accurate reading.
