Question

What is the principle of the method of a mixture? Name the law on which this principle is based.

• A. Newtons law of cooling
• B. none
• C. principle of calorimetry
• D. principle of heat transfer

Answer 1

The correct option is C principle of calorimetry

A principle of calorimetry states that if there is no loss of heat in surrounding the total heat loss by hot body equals to total heat gained by a cold body.
i.e. heat loss = heat gained
It is based on Newton's Law of Cooling, which states that when a liquid is heated of higher temperature and placed to cool. Then the rate of heat lost by a temperature of the liquid is directly proportional to the difference in temperature of the surrounding.
