- Salicylic acid, C7H6O3, is one of the starting materials in the manufacture of aspirin. When 1.00 g of salicylic acid burns in a bomb calorimeter, the temperature of the bomb and water goes from 23.11C to 28.91C. The calorimeter and water absorb 21.9 kJ of heat. How much heat is given off when one mole of salicylic acid burns?arrow_forwardIn a bomb calorimeter, the reaction vessel is surrounded by water that must be added for each experiment. Since the amount of water is not constant from experiment to experiment, the mass of water must be measured in each case. The heat capacity of the calorimeter is broken down into two parts: the water and the calorimeter components. If a calorimeter contains 1.00 kg water and has a total heat capacity of 10.84 kJ/C, what is the heat capacity of the calorimeter components?arrow_forward9.30 For the example of shallow water and sandy beaches, which material has a larger heat capacity or specific heat?

Assume that the specific heat of the fruit is the same as that of pure water because the fruit is mostly water.
