Estimate the calorie content of 65 g of candy from the following measurements. a 15-g sample of the candy is placed in a small aluminum container of mass 0.325 kg filled with oxygen. this container is placed in 1.75 kg of water in an aluminum calorimeter cup of mass 0.624 kg at an initial temperature of 15.0°c. the oxygen–candy mixture in the small container (a "bomb calorimeter") is ignited, and the final temperature of the whole system is 53.5°c.

The calorie content of  65g of candy is 326.78 cal

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of the candy = 15.00 grams

Mass of the container = 0.325 kg

Mass of water = 1.75kg

0.624 kg at an initial temperature of 15.0°C.

The specific heat of aluminium = 0.22 Cal/kg°C

The specific heat of water = 1 cal/kg°C

Step 2: Calculate calorie content for a 15 gram sample

ΔQ = Σm*c*ΔT

 ⇒ m = mass in grams

⇒ with c= the specific heat in Cal/kg°C

⇒ with ΔT = T2 -T1 = the change in temperatures in °C

ΔQ = m(bomb) * C(aluminium) * ΔT + m(cup) * C(aluminium) * ΔT + m(H2O) * c(H20) * ΔT

ΔQ = (m(bomb) + m(cup)) * c(aluminium)  + m(H2O)*c(H20) ) * ΔT

⇒ with mass of the bomb calorimeter = 0.325 kg

⇒ with mass of the cup = 0.624 kg

⇒ with c(aluminium) = the specific heat of aluminium = 0.22 Cal/kg°C

⇒ with mass of water = 1.75 kg

⇒ with c(water) = the heat capacity of water = 1 Cal/kg°C

⇒ with ΔT = the change in temperature = T2 - T1 = 53.5 - 15.0 = 38.5 °C

ΔQ = 0.325*0.22*38.5 + 0.624*0.22*38.5 + 1.75*1*38.5

ΔQ = ((0.325 + 0.624)*0.22 + 1.75*1)*38.5

ΔQ = 75.41 cal

Step 3: Calculate the calorie content for a 65 gram sample

For a 65g sample the calorie content will be more or less 4x higher than a 15 gram sample:

ΔQ = 75.41  * (65/15) = 326.78 cal

the answer is the first option

explanation:

just googled it m8. not that hard

lol

it's all four options.
