Stearic acid `[CH_(3)(CH_(2))_(16)CO_(2)H]` is a fatty acid the part of fat that stores most of the energy .1.0 g of Stearic acid was burnt in a bomb calorimeter . The bomb had capacity of 652 `J//^(@)C`. If the temperature of 500 g water rose from 25.0 to `39.3^(@)C` how much heat is released when the stearic acid was burned?
