The following reaction using hydrogen and oxygen is carried out in a bomb calorimeter: 2H2(g)  +  O2(g)  →   2H2O(l)  The specific heat of the reaction vessel is 0.200 kcal/0C-kg and the specific heat of water is 1.00 kcal/0C-kg. Assuming that m is 0.1 mole of water was formed in the experiment and Q is 7.2 kcal, calculate the heat of the reaction per mole of liquid water.
