A student runs two experiments with a constant-volume "bomb" calorimeter containing 1100. g of water (see sketch at right). First, a 5.500 g 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 26.454 kJ/g.) The temperature of the water is observed to rise from 18.00 °C to 48.06 °C over a time of 5.8 minutes. Next, 5.630 g of ethylene (C2H4) are put into the "bomb" and similarly completely burned in an excess of oxygen. This time the temperature of the water rises from 18.00 °C to 77.25 °C.
