A 5000 g sample of methanol ch3oh was combusted in the


A 5.000 g sample of methanol, CH3OH, was combusted in the presence of excess oxygen in a bomb calorimeter containing 4000 g of water. The temperature of the water increased from 24.000 (degree C) to 29.765 (degrees C). The heat capacity of the calorimeter was 2657 J/(degree C). Thespecific heat of water is 4.184 J/goC. Calculate (delta) E for the reaction in kJ/mol.
