Bomb calorimeter can be used to determine the _____________ of the coal?
Correct answer: C. Both A. & B.
- A. Sulphur content
- B. Calorific value
- C. Both A. & B.
- D. Neither A. nor B.
Explanation
A bomb calorimeter directly measures the heat released on complete combustion and therefore gives the coal's gross calorific value. Sulphur can also be estimated from the acidic products collected in the bomb washings, so both listed properties can be determined.
