A bomb calorimeter, or a constant volume calorimeter, is a device often used to determine the heat of combustion of fuels and the energy content of foods. In an experiment, a 0.7484 g sample of adipic acid (CH,1004) is burned completely in a bomb calorimeter. The calorimeter is surrounded by 1.044x103 g of water. During the combustion the temperature increases from 28.71 to 31.53 °C. The heat capacity of water is 4.184 J gloc-1. The heat capacity of the calorimeter was determined in a previous experiment to be 917.5 J/°C. Assuming that no energy is lost to the surroundings, calculate the molar heat of combustion of adipic acid based on these data.

A bomb calorimeter, or a constant volume calorimeter, is a device often used to determine the heat of
combustion of fuels and the energy content of foods.
In an experiment, a 0.7484 g sample of adipic acid (C,H,,04) is burned completely in a bomb calorimeter. The
calorimeter is surrounded by 1.044x10g of water. During the combustion the temperature increases from 28.71

to 31.53 °C. The heat capacity of water is 4.184 J goC
The heat capacity of the calorimeter was determined in a previous experiment to be 917.5 J/°C.
Assuming that no energy is lost to the surroundings, calculate the molar heat of combustion of adipic acid based
on these data.
