You are asked to determine if phenol would be better to use in barbeques than propane. To test this, you burn 120 mg of naphthalene in a calorimeter and the temperature of the calorimeter rises by 3.05 oC. Determine the calorimeter heat capacity. You now burn 100 mg of phenol using the same conditions and the temperature rises by 2.05 oC. Using this data, make a comparison of phenol and propane and discuss which might be better for use in barbies. Assume that phenol and propane are the same price per unit of mass.
