10 g of a fuel is combusted in the internal chamber of a bomb calorimeter because of which the temperature of 250 g of the water present in external chamber increases from 25^(@)C" to "75^(@)C . Write the following steps in a sequential order to find the value of calorific value of the fuel. (Assume that the heat produced by the combustion of fuel is completely absobed by the water). (a) Equate m_(F)S=m_(u)S_(w)(Delta t) and find the value of S. (b) Note the value of mass of fuel (m_(F)) and water (m_(w)) in bomb calorimeter from the given data. (c) Consider the change in the temperature (Delta t) of the water to find the heat absorbed by water using, Q=m_(u)S_(w)(Delta t) . (d) Let 'S' be the calorific value of the fuel and heat produced by the combustion of the fuel is given by Q=m_(f)S.
