Explain the temperature of the calorimeter and its contents

Reference no: EM13244845

The heat liberated by the combustion of glutaric acid, H2C5H6O4, is 21.54 kJ/mol. A 1.50 g sample of glutaric acid is burned in excess O2 (g) in a calorimeter that contains 1250 g of water. The temperature of the calorimeter and its contents increases from 20.00 C to 23.69 C. What is the heat capacity of the calorimeter (J/C)
