A chemical engineer studying the properties of fuels

Chapter 6, Problem 6.47

(choose chapter or problem)

A chemical engineer studying the properties of fuels placed 1.520 g of a hydrocarbon in the bomb of a calorimeter and filled it with O2 gas (see Figure 6.10, p. 248). The bomb was immersed in 2.550 L of water and the reaction initiated. The water temperature rose from 20.00 C to 23.55 C. If the calorimeter (excluding the water) had a heat capacity of 403 J/K, what was the heat of reaction for combustion (qV) per gram of the fuel?
