(b) Write the chemical equation and evaluate H.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_forwardThe combustion of 1.00 mol liquid methyl alcohol (CH3OH) in excess oxygen is exothermic, giving 727 kJ of heat.
