Question

A chemist carefully measures the amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of a 491.0 mg sample of C4H8O from -5.3°C to 7.8°C. The experiment shows that 10.8 J of heat is needed. What can the chemist report for the molar heat capacity of C4H8O? Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.

Step 1

First, we need to calculate the change in temperature (ΔT) of the C4H8O sample: ΔT = final temperature - initial temperature ΔT = 7.8°C - (-5.3°C) ΔT = 13.1°C Show more…
