3081 J/C x 1.34 C = J heat released by burning 0.167 g Mg.
Convert that to J/24.32 (1 mol) Mg.
A 0.167 g sample of Mg(s) is burned in a bomb calorimeter which has a heat capacity of 3081 J/°C. In this process, the temperature of the calorimeter increased by 1.34 °C. Calculate the heat given off by burning Mg(s) under these conditions (in kJ/mol).
