When 1.550 g of liquid hexane (C₆H₁₄) undergoes combustion in a bomb calorimeter, the temperature rises from 25.87 °C to 38.13 °C. Find ΔErxn for the reaction in kJ/mol hexane. The heat capacity of the bomb calorimeter is 11.3 kJ/°C. What is the ΔErxn?

H₂O (l) → H₂O (g); ΔH = +44.0 kJ/mol

A 1.50-g sample of quinone (C₆H₄O₂) is burned in a bomb calorimeter whose total heat capacity is 8.500 kJ/°C. The temperature of the calorimeter increases from 25.00 to 29.49°C. (b) What is the heat of combustion per gram of quinone and per mole of quinone?

Determine whether each process is exothermic or endothermic and indicate the sign of ΔH. a. dry ice evaporating b. a sparkler burning c. the reaction that occurs in a chemical cold pack used to ice athletic injuries
