Solved: A 4.117-g impure sample of glucose (C6H12O6) was
Chapter 6, Problem 138P(choose chapter or problem)
A 4.117-g impure sample of glucose \(\left(\mathrm{C}_{6} \mathrm{H}_{12} \mathrm{O}_{6}\right)\) was burned in a constant-volume calorimeter having a heat capacity of \(19.65\ \mathrm{kJ} /{ }^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\). If the rise in temperature is \(3.134^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\), calculate the percent by mass of the glucose in the sample. Assume that the impurities are unaffected by the combustion process. See Appendix 3 for thermodynamic data.
