Question:
When 1243 J of heat energy is added to 44.3g of hexane, C6H14, the temperature increases by 12.4 degrees Celsius. Calculate the molar heat capacity of C6H14.
Answer: ____ J/(mol*Celsius)
HINT:
The units of molar heat capacity, J(mol*Celsius), imply the formula needed to calculate it.
Cp = q_p/(n(delta(T))
where q is heat energy (in joules), n is the number of moles, and deltaT is the temperature change (in degrees Celsius).
