The enthalpy of combustion of benzoic acid is commonly used as the standard for calibrating constant-volume bomb calorimeters; its value has been accurately determined to be 3226.7kJ/mol. When 3.1499g of benzoic acid are burned in a calormeter, the temperature rises from 22.84 to 25.67 degrees celcius. What is the heat capacity of the bomb?(Assume that the quantity of water surrounding the bomb is exactly 2250 g) Given the answer in kj/degreeC
