This a multpart question usually. You have asked just one part of it. When you have multipart questions it is best to post the entire question and let us see the whole thing instead of post each part at separate times.
q = total heat = [mass H2O x heat capacity H2O x (Tfinal-Tinitial)] | + [heat capacity calorimeter x (Tfinal-Tinitial)]
Please I need your help in solving this. = A 0.3423g sample of pentane c5H12 was burned in a bomb calorimeter, the temperature of the calorimeter and the 1.00kg of water contained therein rose from 20.22°c to 22.82 °c. The heat capacity of the calorimeter is 2.21kj/°c. The heat capacity of water is 4.184j/g°c. How much heat was given off during combustion of the sample of pentane?
