Answer to Question #87490 in General Chemistry for mike

Question

A 0.445-g sample of 9,10-phenanthrenediol (C14H10O2) is burned in a bomb calorimeter and the temperature increases from 25.10 °C to 27.90 °C. The calorimeter contains 1.05×103 g of water and the bomb has a heat capacity of 769 J/°C. Based on this experiment, calculate ΔE for the combustion reaction per mole of 9,10-phenanthrenediol burned (kJ/mol).

ΔE=______ kJ/mol

Answer 1

1,015.17303 kJ/mol
