When 1.0g of a compound (molecular weight=28) is burnt in a bomb calorimeter, the temperature of the calorimeter rises from `25^(@)C` to `25.45^(@)C`. Calculate the heat that evolves when 1 mol of this compound is completely burnt `(C_(cal)=2.5kJ*K^(-1))`.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`DeltaT=[(372+25.45)-(273+25)]=0.45K`
Therefore, heat evolved due to combustion of 1 g of the compound`=C_(cal)xxDeltaT=2.5kJ*K^(-1)xx0.45K=1.125kJ`.
`therefore` Heat produced due to combustion of 1 mol or 28g of that compound`=1.125xx28=31.5kJ`.
