A 128 G Sample of Ethanol (C₂H₅OH)is Burned in a Bomb

question 126

Multiple Choice

A 12.8 g sample of ethanol (C₂H₅OH) is burned in a bomb calorimeter with a heat capacity of 5.65 kJ °C^-1. Using the information below, determine the final temperature of the calorimeter if the initial temperature is 25.0°C. The molar mass of ethanol is 46.07 g mol^-1. C₂H₅OH(l) + 3O₂(g) → 2CO₂(g) + 3H₂O(g) Δ_rU = -1235 kJ mol^-1

• A)53.4 °C
• B)28.1 °C
• C)111 °C
• D)85.7 °C
• E)74.2 °C
