A sample of solid biphenyl weighing 0.5260 g was ignited in a bomb calorimeter initially at 25.0°C, producing a temperature rise of 1.910 K. Determine the internal energy (∆U) of combustion. To properly determine the internal energy of combustion for the solid biphenyl, the calorimeter was first calibrated. a)A 0.7750 g sample of benzoic acid (C₆H₅COOH, MW 122.1 g/mol)) was ignited under identical conditions and produced a temperature rise of 1.940 K. For benzoic acid, the internal energy combustion at constant volume, ∆U, is known to be –3226 kJ/mol. Calculate the calorimeter constant, in kJ/K. b)using the caloremeter constant, determine triangleU, in KJ/mol, for the conbustion of solid biphenyl ((C6H5)2, MW 154.21 g/mol)
