Short Answer
A 0.3423 g sample of pentane, C5H12, was burned in a bomb calorimeter.The temperature of the calorimeter and the 1.000 kg of water contained therein rose from 20.22°C to 22.82°C.The heat capacity of the calorimeter is 2.21 kJ/°C.The heat capacity of water = 4.184 J/g·°C.What is the heat of combustion, in kilojoules, per gram of pentane?
