What is the enthalpy of reaction per mole of oxygen bound


An aqueous solution of unoxygenated hemoglobin containing 5 g of protein (M= 64000 g/mol) in the 100cm3 of solution is placed in an insulated vessel. When enough molecular oxygen is added to the solution to completely saturate the hemoglobin, the temperature rises 0.031 degree celsius. Each mole of hemoglobin binds 4 mol of oxygen. What is the enthalpy of reaction per mole of oxygen bound? The heat capacity of the solution the solution may be assumed to be 4.18 J/K/cm3.
