A 0.500 grams sample of n-heptane(1) burned in a constant volume calorimeter to CO,(g) and H,0(1) causes a temperature rise of 2.934°C. If the heat capacity of the calorimeter and its accessories is 1954cal/°C, and the mean temperature of the calorimeter is 25°C, calculate: (1) The heat of combustion per mole of the heptane at constant volume

Question

Transcribed Image Text:A 0.500 grams sample of n-heptane(1) burned in a constant volume
calorimeter to CO2(g) and H,O(1) causes a temperature rise of
2.934°C. If the heat capacity of the calorimeter and its accessories is
1954cal/°C, and the mean temperature of the calorimeter is 25°C,
calculate:
(1) The heat of combustion per mole of the heptane at constant
volume
(2) The heat of combustion of the heptane per mole at constant
pressure
The standard heat of formation for n-heptane (1) is - 53910 cal.
