A calorimeter is an instrument that is used in that process that is responsible for determining the amount of heat generated as a result of chemical reactions and physical changes undergone by the under-study substance. A typical calorimeter is composed of a thermometer that is being attached to a container of water which is suspended over the combustion chamber.
The container is made up of a conducting material and there is insulation over it which helps in preventing the loss of heat into the environment. This instrument is employed in various techniques related to biochemistry, thermodynamics, etc. in order to measure the heat capacity, enthalpy, and stability of a system. There are different types of calorimeters such as adiabatic calorimeter, reaction calorimeter, bomb calorimeter, etc.
