Question

(10)A certain bomb calorimeter has a heat capacity of 5.70 kJ/°C. When a 1.440
gram sample of propane is burned inside the calorimeter, the temperature
following the combustion is 76.55°C. What was the initial temperature of
the calorimeter prior to combustion?
AH,° Propane
= -250 kJ/n
AH,° co2 = -393.5 kJ/n
AH,° H20(1) = -285.8 kJ/n
