Compute the total heat capacity of calorimeter

Reference no: EM13192834

A .500 g sample of glucose (C6H12O6, MW=180g/mol) is burned in a bomb calorimeter. The temperature of the calorimeter increases from 19.7C to 20.6C. If under constant volme conditions the heat of combustion of glucose is -2805 kj/mol, calculate the total heat capacity of calorimeter.
