A student experiment involved burning 1.04 g of C(s) in a calorimeter. The student found that burning the carbon released enough heat to increase the temperature of 1.00 kg of water from 12.00°C to 19.36°C. Calculate the amount of heat released by the carbon (assume all the heat went into the water).

A student designed a calorimetry experiment to find the molar enthalpy of combustion of methanol, CH3OH(l). The student burned 0.0345 mol of methanol to heat 0.100 kg of water in the calorimeter and assumed that all the energy was transferred to the water. The initial and final thermometer readings, in degrees Celsius, are shown below.

4. Calculate the amount of heat energy released by the methanol.
