Two experiments were conducted in a bomb calorimeter. The first one to determine the heat capacity of the calorimeter, the second the heat of combustion of the carcinogenic substance benzene (C6H6). a. In the first experiment, the temperature rises from 22.37 o C to 24.68 o C when the calorimeter absorbs 5682 J of heat. Determine the heat capacity of the calorimeter. Page 3 of 4 b. In the second experiment, the combustion of 0.258 g of benzene increases the temperature from 22.37 o C to 26.77 o C. Determine the heat of combustion for 1 mol of benzene.

These questions are based on the attached photo. the experiment is about burning magnesium metal with oxygen. 1. write the balanced chemical equation for the reaction you are performing. 2. calculate the mass of magnesium metal used in each trial. o trial 1: o trial 2: 3. calculate the actual yield of magnesium oxide for each trial. o trial 1: o trial 2: 4. magnesium is the limiting reactant in this experiment. calculate the theoretical yield of mgo for each trial. o trial 1: o trial 2: 5. determine the percent yield of mgo for your experiment for each trial. o trial 1: o trial 2: 6. determine the average percent yield of mgo for the two trials. your company currently uses a process with a similar cost of materials that has an average percent yield of 91 percent. if the average percent yield of this process is higher than that, this could save the company money. what is your recommendation to the company? support your recommendation using your data, calculations, and understanding of stoichiometry gathered from this lab.
