APFIVE Bomb Calorimetry Calculation
The data from a bomb calorimetry experiment are shown in the table. A 2.00 g sample is combusted in the calorimeter, causing the temperature of the 150.0 g of water to increase by 5.0°C. What is the amount of heat released per gram of the sample, in kJ/g?
| Parameter | Value |
|---|---|
| Water mass (g) | 150.0 |
| Specific heat (J/g°C) | 4.18 |
| Temperature change (°C) | 5.0 |
| Sample mass (g) | 2.00 |
A
$$15.7\;kJ/g$$
B
$$1.57\;kJ/g$$
C
$$156.75\;kJ/g$$
D
$$0.16\;kJ/g$$
