the enthalpy of combustion of benzoic acid C6H5COOH, which is used to calibrate calorimeters usualmete is -3227 kJ mol-1. burning 1.453g of benzoic acid into a calorimeter, the 2,265 ° C temperature increase what is the heat capacity of the calorimeter?

1 answer

Convert 1.453 g benzoic acid to mols. mols = grams/molar mass = ?
q = Ccal x (Tfinal-Tinitial)
+3227000 x mol = Ccal x (delta T)
You know everything but Ccal. I wonder if that is 2.265 T increase.
