Phthalates used as plasticizers in rubber and plastic products are believed to act as hormone mimics in humans. The value of AHcomb for dimethylphthalate (C10H1004) is -4685 kJ/mol. Assume 0.965 g of dimethylphthalate is combusted in a calorimeter whose heat capacity (Ccalorimeter) is 7.40 kJ/°C at 22.0 °C. What is the final temperature of the calorimeter?

2) A0.500 g sample of Trinitrotoluene (C7H$N2O6) is burned in a bomb calorimeter containing 610 grams of water at an initial temperature of 20°C. The heat capacity of the calorimeter is 420 J°C and the heat of combustion of Trinitrotoluene is 3374 kJ/mol. Using these data, calculate the final temperature of the water and calorimeter once the reaction is complete.
200 mL of a 0.500 M solution of AgNO, reacts with 200 mL of a 0.500 M solution of HBr in a coffee-cup calorimeter and the temperature rises from 22.80 °C to 26.58 °C. Assuming the density and specific heat of the resulting solution is 1.00 g/mL and 4.184 J/g.°C, respectfully, what is the AH°rxn? O.45.6kJ/mol O+57.3 kJ/mol O- 63.3 kJ/mol
A student runs two experiments with a constant-volume "bomb" calorimeter containing 1300.g of water (see sketch at right). First, a 6.000g tablet of benzoic acid C6H5CO2H is put into the "bomb" and burned completely in an excess of oxygen. (Benzoic acid is known to have a heat of combustion of /26.454kJg .) The temperature of the water is observed to rise from 14.00°C to 39.98°C over a time of 14.9 minutes. Next, 5.570g of acetylene C2H2 are put into the "bomb" and similarly completely burned in an excess of oxygen. This time the temperature of the water rises from 14.00°C to 60.18°C .

Iron has a specific heat capacity of 0.444J/g-C. 50.0 g of iron at 35C is added to 50.0 g of water with a specific heat capacity of 4.184 J/g-C. When the temperature of the resulting mixture stops changing, the temperature is closer to that of the original water than to the iron. True or false?
