Temperature increase, dT = 53.880C – 24.260C = 29.620C
Heat capacity of Calorimeter = 675 J 0C-1
Specific heat of water = 4.186 J g-10C-1
Total heat released during combustion of hydrocarbon is absorbed by the calorimeter system (calorimeter itself + water in it).
So, heat gained by calorimeter system is equal to heat gained by calorimeter plus heat gained by water.
Note: Heat capacity is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature by 10C (or any other temperature unit). It does not specify mass of a object. Instead it tells that the object (here, calorimeter) as a while requires this amount of energy to increase temperature by 10C. So,
Heat gained by calorimeter = (dT x heat capacity of calorimeter)
Specific heat capacity or specific heat is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1.0 g object by 10C. So,
Heaty gained by water = m.s.dT ; where, s= specific heat of water
Therefore, total heat gained by calorimeter system is-
Or, q = heat gained by calorimeter + heat gained by water
Or, q = (C x dT) calorimeter + msdT water
Or, q = (675 J 0C-1 x 29.620C) + [925g x (4.186 J g-10C-1) x 29.620C]
Or, q = 17968.5 J + 24627.686 J = 42596.186 J
Thus, total heat gained by calorimeter system = 42596.186 J
Since, “Total heat released during combustion of hydrocarbon is absorbed by the calorimeter system (calorimeter itself + water in it)”,-
Heat released by 0.5 mol hydrocarbon = 42596.186 J
Heat released per mol hydrocarbon = (42596.186 J/ 0.5 mol)
= 85192.372 J/ mol
Thus, molar enthalpy of combustion of hydrocarbon = 85192.372 J/ mol
Temperature increase, dT = 53.880C – 24.260C = 29.620C
Heat capacity of Calorimeter = 675 J 0C-1
Specific heat of water = 4.186 J g-10C-1
