sample
A bomb calorimeter, or constant volume calorimeter, is a device often used to determine
the heat of combustion of fuels and the energy content of foods.
Since the "bomb" itself can absorb energy, a separate experiment is needed to determine
the heat capacity of the calorimeter. This is known as calibrating the calorimeter.
Water
In the laboratory a student burns a 0.449-g sample of 1,6-hexanediol (C,H1402) in a
bomb calorimeter containing 1080. g of water. The temperature increases from 25.50 °C
to 28.20 °C. The heat capacity of water is 4.184 J glºC"!.
The molar heat of combustion is –3792 kJ per mole of 1,6-hexanediol.
C,H1402(s) + 17/2 02(g) 6 CO2(g) + 7 H20(1) + Energy
Calculate the heat capacity of the calorimeter.
