The heat of combustion (AH) for an unknown hydrocarbon is -8.21
kJ/mol. If 0.424 mol of the hydrocarbon is burned in a bomb
calorimeter, what is the change in temperature (°C) of the
calorimeter? The heat capacity of the bomb calorimeter is 1.12 kJ/ °C.

Expert Solution
Step 1

Amount of heat,Q required to raise the temperature of a substance of mass ,m and specific heat capacity, C  from temperature T1 to temperature T2 is calculated by formula : 

Q = m C ( T2 - T1 )

Q = m C ( ∆T )
