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.
Balancing combustion reactions is easy. 1  First, balance the carbon and hydrogen atoms on both sides of the equation. 2  Then, balance the oxygen atoms. 3  Finally, balance anything that has become unbalanced.
