In a bomb calorimeter (constant volume), 3.5 g of a gas (Molar Mass-28.0g/mol) react with an excess of oxygen at 298.0 K. After combustion, the temperature of the calorimeter increases from 298.0 K to 298.45 K. If the heat capacity of the calorimeter is C= 2.5 JK^-1, calculate the AH of combustion in kImol^-1. Assume the total number of moles of the gas doesn't change during combustion.

Question
In a bomb calorimeter (constant volume), 3.5 g of a gas (Molar Mass-28.0g/mol) react with an
excess of oxygen at 298.0 K. After combustion the temperature of the calorimeter increases
from 298.0 K to 298.45 K. If the heat capacity of the calorimeter is C=2.5 kJK^-1, calculate the
AH of combustion in kimol-1. Assume the total number of moles of the gas doesn't change
during combustion.
