Heat capacity of a Bomb calorimeter is given by _______

Heat capacity of a Bomb calorimeter is given by _______ Correct Answer CV

A bomb calorimeter operates at a constant volume i.e. it is an isochoric process. So the heat capacity is CV which represents heat capacity at constant volume. While CP represents heat capacity at constant pressure.
