Calculate calorimeter constant for coffee cup calorimeter


A 2.70 g sample of solid (CH3)3NHCl (s) is dissolved in 446 mL of water in a coffee cup calorimeter. Once all of the (CH3)3NHCl (s) is dissolved in the water, the final temperature of the solution is found to be 13.85°C. If the initial temperature of the water in the calorimeter was 20.25 °C, calculate the calorimeter constant (in J/K) for the coffee cup calorimeter.
Report your answer to three significant figures.

The heat of solvation of (CH3)3NHCl (s) is 1.46 kJ/mol.
