If a student performs an endothermic reaction in a calorimeter,how does the calculated value of H differ from the actual value if the heat exchanged with the calorimeter is not taken into account?
A) " Hcalc" would be more negative because the calorimeter always absorbs heat from the reaction.
B) " Hcalc" would be less negative because the calorimeter would absorb heat from the reaction.
C) " Hcalc' would be more positive because the reaction absorbs heat from the calorimeter.
D) " Hcalc" would be less positive because the reaction absorbs heat from the calorimeter.
E) " Hcalc" would equal the actual value because the calorimeter does not absorb heat.
