Sucrose, C₁₂H₂2O(s), is commonly used to sweeten food. In order to determine the molar enthalpy of combustion for sucrose, a technician burns a 0.015 0 mol sample of sucrose using a copper calorimeter that contains 250.0 g of water. The combustion of sucrose is represented by the following equation. C₁2H₂2O(s) + 12 O₂(g) → 12 CO₂(g) + 11 H₂O(g) 6. If the temperature change of the water in the calorimeter is +55.5 °C, then the experimental molar enthalpy of combustion for sucrose is approximately A. -8.72 x 10¹ kJ/mol B. -1.40 x 10¹ kJ/mol C. -5.81 x 10¹ kJ/mol D. -3.88 x 10³ kJ/mol

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 0.8608 g sample of glutaric acid (C3HgO4) is burned completely in a bomb calorimeter. The calorimeter is surrounded by 1.029x103 g of water. During the combustion the temperature increases from 25.01 to 27.84 °C. The heat capacity of water is 4.184 J gl°c-!. The heat capacity of the calorimeter was determined in a previous experiment to be 839.5 J°C. Assuming that no energy is lost to the surroundings, calculate the molar heat of combustion of glutaric acid based on these data.
