Calculate the temperature change (ΔT) by subtracting the initial temperature from the final temperature: ΔT = 69.8 °C - 29.5 °C.
Determine the total heat absorbed by the calorimeter (q_calorimeter) using the formula: q_calorimeter = C_calorimeter × ΔT, where C_calorimeter is the heat capacity of the calorimeter.
Since the heat absorbed by the calorimeter is equal to the heat released by the combustion of aniline, set q_combustion = -q_calorimeter.
Calculate the moles of aniline combusted using its mass and molar mass: moles = mass / molar mass, where mass = 2.49 g and molar mass = 93.13 g/mol.
Determine the standard enthalpy change of combustion (ΔH°comb) per mole of aniline by dividing the heat of combustion by the moles of aniline: ΔH°comb = q_combustion / moles.
