Thermodynamics

A slice of banana weighing 2.502g was burnt in a bomb calorimeter producing a temperature rise of 3.05 C. The combustion of 0.316g of benzoic acid in the same calorimeter produced a tempterature rise of 3.24 C. The heat of combustion of benzoic acid at constant volume is -3227 kJ/mol. If average banana weigh 125g, how many caloriescan be obtained from one average banana?

Hcom=cTchange/molar mass of element

using the above we can find c i.e heat capacity of calorimeter

now that we know the heat capacity of the calorimeter
use Q=McTchange

this is your answer
