Benzoic acid is used to determine the heat capacity of bomb calorimeters because it can be obtained in pure form and its energy of combustion is known very accurately (-26.43 kJ/g) . Determine the heat capacity of a calorimeter that had a temperature increase of 9.199 C when 3.500 g of benzoic acid was used.
A) 5.061 kJ/ C
B) 10.06 kJ/ C
C) 2.032 kJ/ C
D) 20.12 kJ/ C
E) 15.37 kJ/ C
