A `1.250 g` sample of octane `(C_(8)H_(18))` is burned in excess of oxygen in a bomb calorimeter. The temperature of calorimeter rises from `294.05 K` to `300.78 K`. If heat capacity of the calorimeter is `8.93 kJ K^(-1)`, find the heat transferred to calorimeter.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Heat transferred = `60.1 kJ, Delta_(c) H = 5481.1 kJ mol^(-1)`.
