Question
The heat of combustion of octane, C8H18 , can be measured in a way similar to the method you used to measure the heat of neutralization. The bomb calorimeter is used instead of a coffee cup. The reaction is
2C8H18 (l) + 25 O2 (g) -> 16 CO2(g) + 18 H2O (l)
When 1.02 g of octane was burned in a bomb calorimeter, the temperature of 1.00 kg of water was raised from 22.0 C to 35.3 C. The specific heat of water is 4.184. How many moles of octane were burned? What is the heat of combustion (change in enthalpy) of octane in kilojoules per mole?

- In an experiment, a 0.5002 g sample of tridecanedioic acid ( C13 H24 O4) is burned completely in a bomb calorimeter. The calorimeter is surrounded by 1.165 × 10³ g of water. During the combustion the temperature increases from 21.99 to 24.52 °C. The heat capacity of water is 4.184 J·g¯¹. °C-¹. The heat capacity of the calorimeter was determined in a previous experiment to be 904.0 J. °C¯¹. Assuming that no energy is lost to the surroundings, calculate the molar heat of combustion of tridecanedioic acid based on these data.
