Explain the calorimeter containing a sample of water

Reference no: EM13491527

A student performs a series of calorimetry experiments. She determines the calorimeter constant (Ccal) for her coffee cup calorimeter. She pours a 50.0 mL sample of water at 345 K into the calorimeter containing a 50.0 mL sample of water at 298 K. She carefully records the final temperature of the water as 317 K. What is the value of Ccal for the calorimeter?
