To begin the experiment, 1.65g of methane CH is burned in a bomb calorimeter containing 1000 grams of water. The initial temperature of water is 18.98°C. The
specific heat of water is 4.184 J/g °C. The heat capacity of the calorimeter is 615
J/ °C. After the reaction the final temperature of the water is 36.38°C.
