A 0.016402-mol sample of an organic compound was burned in oxygen in a bomb calorimeter. The temperature of the calorimeter increased from 26.3oC to 27.3oC. If the heat capacity of the calorimeter is 4.28 kJ (oC)-1, then what is the constant volume heat of combustion of this compound, in kilojoules per mole?

i'm not sure if the heat capacity given is in moles or grams, you have to double check that: use: \(q=n*C_p*\Delta T\) or \(q=m*C_p*\Delta T\) , depending on the units of \(C_p\). The scale your result to the amount of energy per 1 mole.
