In separating calorimeters, water, particle are separated mechanically. The steam is allowed to strike on hard surface due to, which water particles falls down. The steam is separately collected in another chamber., The weight s of water particles and steam are measured. rien, Ge., ,, , ; } 'y re, Setup (Models) - i coafeg } ey, (Label the sketch), , , , , , , , Figure — Seperating Calorimeter, , , , Maharashtra state Board of Technical Education, , 29
