THERMODYNAMICS: The combustion of 1.00 mol of glucose (C6H12O6) liberates 2820 kJ of heat. If 1.75 g of glucose is burned in a calorimeter containing 957 g of water, and the temperature of the assembly increases from 20.10oC to 23.35oC, what is the heat capacity of the calorimeter in kJ/oC? MW of glucose is 180 g/mol. (Round off the final answer to TWO decimal places. Do not include the unit.)
