Question
A 5.000 g sample of methanol, CH3OH, was combusted in the presence of excess oxygen in a bomb calorimeter
containing 4.000 x 103 g of water. The temperature of the water increased from 24.00 °C to 29.76°C. The heat capacity of
the calorimeter was 2657 Ji C. The specific heat of water is 4.184 J/g*C. How much heat, in kJ, was produced by the
combustion of the methanol sample? (Requires at least 4 steps of calculations.)
-489 kJ
-112 kJ
-716 kJ
-314 kJ
