The heat capacity of a bomb calorimeter assembly is 
. What is the heat of combustion of 
of sucrose in a bomb calorimeter that results in the temperature rising from 
to 
?
The heat capacity of a bomb calorimeter assembly is
A bomb calorimeter is a device used to measure the quantity of heat change for a process. The heat of a reaction which is denoted as 
, is the negative of the thermal energy gained by the calorimeter:
The heat capacity of a calorimeter is:
Plugging the values given into the equation gives:
Using the relation provided earlier:
Because we are dealing with 1.1 grams of sucrose, the heat of combustion of sucrose is:
