It includes buttons for numbers 0-9, decimal point, positive/negative sign, and scientific notation (x10). A clear button (C) is also available to remove entered values.**Instructions:**To calculate the heat of combustion:1. Use the formula: \[ \text{Heat of combustion} = \frac{\text{Heat absorbed by calorimeter}}{\text{moles of substance}} \] 2. Calculate the heat absorbed by the calorimeter: \[ \text{Heat absorbed} = \text{Temperature change} \times \text{Heat capacity} \] \[ \text{Heat absorbed} = 2.19°C \times 1.229 \text{kJ/°C} \]3. Use the heat absorbed value in the combustion formula above.**Further Resources:**You can tap for additional resources to understand the concept of calorimetry and the principles behind combustion reactions.

The relation between the enthalpy change involved in the combustion reaction and heat capacity of the bomb calorimeter can be obtained by combining the equations (1) to (3).Substitute the required values in the equation (4) to obtain the final answer.
