Combustion of 1 g of benzoic acid releases 2642 kJ Which of the following represents the heat capacity of the calorimeter if the temperature rise is 4674C class=

Respuesta :

To answer this question, we have to divide the amount of heat released by the change in temperature:

[tex]\frac{26.42kJ}{4.674\degree C}=5.652kJ/\degree C[/tex]

It means that the correct answer is the last choice 5.652kJ/°C.
