Question
A 0.588 g sample of liquid C5H12 was combusted using excess oxygen gas inside a bomb calorimeter, with the products being carbon dioxide gas and liquid water. The calorimeter's heat capacity is 4.706 kJ °C-1.
If the temperature inside the calorimeter increased from 25.0 °C to 29.9 °C, determine ΔrU for this reaction in kJ mol-1 (with respect to C5H12). Do not worry about how realistic the final answer is. Express answer in 2 significant figures.

- 3 If we measure the heat change (q) of everything in a system except the calorimeter, we can use the first law of thermodynamics (∆Euniverse = 0) to calculate the heat change of the calorimeter (qcal). In this reaction, we combine 5.75 g of 67.4 ºC water with 6.67 g of 19 ºC water in a calorimeter. Since some of the heat is absorbed by the calorimeter, the final temperature of the water is 25.4ºC. Since the hot and cold water are combined, the final temp of the water is the final temp for the hot water and the cold water. Calculate the heat change of the calorimeter in J. Remember that all of the heat changes must add up to zero so you can calculate the heat change of the hot water (qhotwater) and the heat change of the cold water (qcoldwater) using for each where Cs = 4.186 J/gºC. The first law of thermodynamics tells us that all of these changes sum up to zero so Enter your answer to one decimal place (tenths)arrow_forwardCombustion of C12H22O11(s) (sucrose or "table sugar") produces CO2(g) and H2O(l).
