A certain chemical reaction releases 269. kJ of heat energy per mole of reactant consumed. Suppose some moles of the reactant are put into a calorimeter (a device for measuring heat flow). It takes 3.21 J of heat energy to raise the temperature of this calorimeter by 1 °C. Now the reaction is run until all the reactant is gone, and the temperature of the calorimeter is found to rise by 5.0 °C. How would you calculate the number of moles of reactant that were consumed? Set the math up. But don't do any of it. Just leave your answer as a math expression. Also, be sure your answer includes all the correct unit symbols. moles consumed = x10 010 X Ś
