A 1.0 g sample of octane is burned in a bomb calorimeter that contains 1200 mL of water with an initial temperature of 25.0 °C. The final temperature of the water following the reaction was measured to be 33.2 °C. Given a specific heat capacity of water of 4.184 J/g °C and C, of the calorimeter value of 837 J/°C, determine the molar change in internal energy (AUm) of the reaction in kJ/mol.

Question
1) Bomb calorimetry
A 1.0 g sample of octane is burned in a bomb calorimeter that contains 1200
mL of water with an initial temperature of 25.0 °C. The final temperature of
the water following the reaction was measured to be 33.2 °C. Given a
specific heat capacity of water of 4.184 J/g °C and C, of the calorimeter
value of 837 J/ °C, determine the molar change in internal energy (AUm) of
the reaction in kJ/mol. (Hint: qrxn= -(qwater + qcalorimeter)
