bomb calorimeter

[Clarissa Nava 3H]

for this idea is this a closed open or isolated system?

[Chem_Mod]

A bomb calorimeter is a closed system since it can't absorb or release energy from/to the surroundings and it also can't gain or lose mass to the surroundings. :)

[Matthew Casillas 1C]

What is constant in this situation?

[Cade Okohira 4K]

Volume is constant in a bomb calorimeter, and usually pressure and temperature change when combustion occurs within the bomb calorimeter. The heat released is thus taken up by the calorimeter.

[Michelle Nwufo 2G]

So, if volume does not change, then work is equal to zero in a bomb calorimeter, right?

[MariahClark 2F]

Yea w=0 in that case

[Luis_Yepez_1F]

Work would be equal to zero, since volume is constant.

[MariaJohn1D]

Could this be considered an isolated system because it is insulated?

[nicole-2B]

Work would be equal to zero, since volume is constant.

so when volume is constant work is equal to 0 in any case?
