3. Exactly 3.0 g of carbon was burned to CO2 in a copper calorimeter. The mass of the
calorimeter was 1.5 kg and the mass of the water in the calorimeter was 2 kg. The initial
temperature was 20 0C and the final temperature was 310C. Calculate the heat liberated for
combustion of one gram of carbon. Specific heat of copper is 0.389 J/g and the specific heat
capacity of water is 4.18 Jg–1

4. A 0.100 mol sample of propane, a gas used in many homes in these days of load shedding,
was placed in a bomb calorimeter with excess oxygen and ignited. The reaction was
C3H8 (g) + 5O2 (g) → 3CO2 (g) + 4H2O (l)
The initial temperature was 25.000 0C and its total heat capacity was 97.1 kJ 0C–1. The
reaction raised the temperature of the calorimeter to 27.282 0C?
