Question
Exactly 3.0 g of carbon was burned to CO2 in a copper calorimeter. The mass
of the calorimeter is 1500g, and there is 2000 g of water in the calorimeter. The initial
temperature was 20°C, and the final temperature is 31 °C. Calculate the heat given off
per gram of carbon. (CCu = 0.093 cal/g·°C). Neglect the small heat capacity of the
carbon and carbon dioxide.
