3.000 g of Compound X with molecular formula C4H10 are burned in a constant-pressure calorimeter containing 10.00 kg of water at 25 degrees Celsius. The temperature of the water is observed to rise by 3.268 degrees Celsius. (You may assume all the heat released by the reaction is absorbed by the water, and none by the calorimeter itself.) Calculate the standard heat of formation of Compound X at 25 degrees Celsius. Be sure your answer has a unit symbol, if necessary, and round it to the correct number of significant digits.

A student mixed 50 ml of 1.0 M HCl and 50 ml of 1.0 M NaOH in a coffee cup calorimeter and calculated the molar enthalpy change of the acid-base neutralization reaction to be –54 kJ/mol. He next tried the same experiment with 100 ml of 1.0 M HCl and 100 ml of 1.0 M NaOH. The calculated molar enthalpy change of reaction for his second trial was: –27 kJ/mol –54 kJ/mol –108 kJ/mol –216 kJ/mol none of these
What is the assumption made when chemical reactions are performed which allows us to use enthalpy, ΔH, instead of energy, ΔE?
