Cooking chicken means to raise the temperature of the meat to a level that is safe to eat, 165 degrees fahrenheit. Boiling is one way to cook chicken in water, but doesn't usually give good results.
The heat of combustion can be most conveniently measured using an adiabatic bomb calorimeter. In. such calorimeter, the combustion reaction occurs in a closed container under constant volume (âbombâ). The bomb. is immersed in a weighted quantity of water and surrounded by an adiabatic shield that serves as a heat insulator.
The speed of the reaction is what distinguishes an explosive reaction from an ordinary combustion reaction. Unless the reaction occurs very rapidly, the thermally expanding gases will be moderately dissipated in the medium, with no large differential in pressure and there will be no explosion. Consider a wood fire.
