Answer to Question #182108 in General Chemistry for Lauren Barad

Question

Two students perform an experiment to determine the molar enthalpy of sucrose (C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁, molar mass = 342^g/_mol). A total of 8.8g glucose is placed in a bomb calorimeter containing 19.4 g water. The glucose is combusted with excess oxygen. The molar heat of combustion of glucose is 5600 J/mol. The specific heat of water is 4.2 J g^-1 oC^-1. What will be the change in temperature experienced by the water?

Answer 1

Change in temperature ;

$=27°C$
