Vanillin is a natural constituent of vanilla that is also manufactured for use in artificial vanilla flavoring. The combustion of 1.013 g of vanillin, C3H&O3, in a bomb calorimeter that has a heat capacity of 4.90 kJ °C-1 causes the temperature to rise from 24.89°C to 30.09°C. What is the heat of combustion of vanillin in terms of kcal per gram?
How much heat, in joules and in calories, must be added to a 75.0–g iron block with a specific heat of 0.449 J/g °C to increase its temperature from 25 °C to its melting temperature of 1535 °C?
