Consider the reaction C12H22O11(s) + 1202 (g)→12CO2(g) +11H2O(1) in which 10.0 g of sucrose, C12H22011, was burned in a bomb calorimeter with a heat capacity of 7.50 kJ/°C. The temperature increase inside the calorimeter was found to be 22.0 °C. Calculate the change in internal energy, AE, for this reaction per mole of sucrose. Express the change in internal energy in kilojoules per mole to three significant figures.

Consider the reaction
C12 H22O11 (s) + 1202(g)→12CO2(g) + 11H20(1)
in which 10.0 g of sucrose, C12H22011, was burned in a bomb calorimeter with a heat capacity of 7.50 kJ/°C. The temperature increase inside
the calorimeter was found to be 22.0 °C. Calculate the change in internal energy, AE, for this reaction per mole of sucrose.
Express the change in internal energy in kilojoules per mole to three significant figures.

A calorimeter is an insulated device in which a chemical
reaction is contained. By measuring the temperature change,
AT, we can calculate the heat released or absorbed during
the reaction using the following equation:
q= specific heat x mass x AT
Or, if the calorimeter has a predetermined heat capacity, C,
the equation becomes
q=C x AT
At constant pressure, the enthalpy change for the reaction,
AH, is equal to the heat, qp; that is,
AH= 4p
but it is usually expressed per mole of reactant and with a
sign opposite to that of q for the surroundings. The total
internal energy change, AE (sometimes referred to as
AU), is the sum of heat, q, and work done, w:
AE=q+w
However, at constant volume (as with a bomb calorimeter)
w =0 and so AE= qv-
