2.1 g of a hydrocarbon fuel is burned in a calorimeter that contains 280 grams of water initially at 25.00◦c. after the combustion, the temperature is 26.55◦c. how much heat is evolved per gram of fuel burned? the heat capacity of the calorimeter (hardware only) is 92.3 j/◦c.

Explanation:

There are three heat transfers involved.

heat from combustion of propane + heat gained by water + heat gained by calorimeter = 0

  q₁     +     q₂      +       q₃      = 0

m₁ΔH + m₂C₂ΔT + C_calΔT = 0

Data:

 m₁ =      2.1   g

 m₂ = 280     g

   Ti = 25.00 °C

   T_f = 26.55 °C

Ccal = 92.3 J·°C⁻¹

Calculations:

Let's calculate the heats separately.

1. q₁

q₁ = 2.1 g × ΔH = 2.1ΔH g

2. q₂

ΔT = T_f - Ti = 26.55 °C - 25.00 °C = 1.55 °C

q₂ = 280 g × 4.184 J·°C⁻¹ × 1.55 °C = 1816 J

3. q₃

q₃ = 92.3 J·°C⁻¹ × 1.55 °C = 143.1 J

4. ΔH

what is the question here. i think you messed up.

no starving yourself won't it will make you lose more weight what you need to do is find out what foods make you gain weight like bread and meats with fat on
