When 1.550 gg of liquid hexane (C6H14)(C6H14) undergoes combustion in a bomb calorimeter, the temperature rises from 25.87 ∘C∘C to 38.13 ∘C∘C. Find ΔErxnΔErxn for the reaction in kJ/molkJ/mol hexane. The heat capacity of the bomb calorimeter, determined in a separate experiment, is 5.73 kJ/∘CkJ/∘C.

Answer:

ΔErxn
= -3.90*10^3KJ

Step-by-step explanation:

Given from the question

T1 = 25.87∘C

T2= 38.13∘C.

C= 5.73Kj/C
