Initial pressure of oxygen introduced into the 'bomb' of the bomb calorimeter for determination of calorific value of coal/fuel oil may be around _____________ atm?
Correct answer: A. 25-30
- A. 25-30
- B. 3-5
- C. 60-65
- D. 95-100
Explanation
A bomb calorimeter is charged with oxygen at roughly 25 to 30 atm so the sample burns completely in a sealed vessel. The much higher pressure ranges listed would not be the normal operating charge.
