Question

Suppose 0.100 mol of a metal (M) is combusted in excess O2(g) in a bomb calorimeter.  

4M(s) + 3O2 ⟶⟶2M2O3(s)

The heat capacity of the empty calorimeter is 458 J/oC and the calorimeter contains 450 mL of water.  As a result of the reaction, the temperature of the water rises from 25.0oC to 40.8oC. Calculate Δ?ΔE for the reaction in KJ/molrxn.  Assume, 

??2?=1.00??/?

??2?=4.18?/?⋅??
