A 2.885 g sample of methanol, CH3OH, is combusted in a bomb calorimeter. The temperature of the calorimeter increases by 11.38 K. If the heat capacity of the bomb is 727.1 J/K and it contains 1.200 kg of water, what is the heat evolved per mole of methanol combusted? The specific heat capacity of water is 4.184 J/g·K and the molar mass of methanol is 32.04 g/mol.
a.-726.5 kJ/mol
b.-634.5 kJ/mol
c.-91.89 kJ/mol
d.-1.019 × 106 kJ/mol
e.-65.41 kJ/mol
