3.95 g of a hydrocarbon, C20H16, were burned in excess oxygen in a constant-volume calorimeter surrounded by 1300. g of water. As a result the temperature of the water and the calorimeter rose from 21.0 oC to 25.7 oC. The heat capacity of the calorimeter was 255.642 J/oC.
Calculate DE (kJ/mol) for the combustion of the hydrocarbon based on these readings.
