To calculate the enthalpy of combustion using bomb calorimeter • When a 1.010-g sample of sucrose (cane sugar) is completely combusted in a bomb calorimeter, the temperature of the calorimeter was increased by 4.50°C.J If the heat capacity of calorimeter is 3.75 kJ/ºC, how much heat was absorbed by the calorimeter? Calculate the molar enthalpy of combustion of sucrose
according to the following equation:
C12H22O11(5)+ 1202(g) 12CO2(g) + 11H2O(7)
