Calculate the heat capacity of the bomb cbomb given that


A student performs a bomb calorimetry experiment with benzoic acid. In this experiment she combusts 1.0039 g benzoic acid and observes a total temperature increase of +2.61?C. The mass of fuse?wire burned in the reaction was 0.0125 g and the total mass of water that she placed in the calorimeter bucket was 2000.8 g. Calculate the heat capacity of the bomb (Cbomb) given that under constant volume conditions the specific heat of combustion of benzoic acid is 26,434 J.g?1.
