Question
In an insulated bomb calorimeter, 0.568 g of solid citric acid (C6H8O7, molar mass
192.12 g) was completely combusted, at 25.00 °C. The calorimeter contained 1032
g of water, initally at 25.00°C. The temperature of the water was observed to rise
to 26.36 °C. Assume all the heat of the reaction went into heating the water, and
that the heat capacity of water is 4.184 J/g-K. Calculate the molar energy change (in
kJ mol-1) for combustion of citric acid.
