Various samples of the must be combusted in other to obtain a reliable result.

<h3>What is a bomb calorimeter?</h3>

The bomb calorimeter is used to obtain the energy of a sample. This is called the energy equivalent or the energy value of the sample.

Now, we know that the bomb calorimeter is calibrated by the use of benzoic acid hence it must be combusted first to obtain the basic energy value of the calorimeter.

Answer:

Answer : (1) :-

Volume of water filled in the pycnometer is given as = 9.9872 mL.

Mass of pycnometer when filled with water = 23.1148 g.

Mass of empty pycnometer = 13.1455 g.

So, mass of water = (23.1148 - 13.1455) g. = 9.9693 g.

We know that,

<em>    Density = Mass / Volume = (9.9693 g.) / (9.9872 mL) = </em>0.998 g/mL.

<u>It is observed that the density of water is evaluated to be 0.998 g/mL. We know that, at 4℃ the density of water becomes maximum i.e. 1 g/mL. On the other hand the temperature at which the density of water is 0.998 g/mL is 0℃. Therefore, it can be concluded that the experiment was performed at a temperature of 0℃.</u>

MAl₂(SO₄)₃·xH₂O:
(mAl×2) + (mS×3) + (mO×12) + (mH₂O×x)
(27×2)+(32×3)+(16×12)+(x×18) = 342 + 18x [g]
mAl₂: 27×2 = 54 [g]

54g ---------- 13,63%
342+18x ---- 100%
0,1363(342+18x) = 54
46,6146 + 2,4534x = 54
2,4534x = 7,3854
x ≈ 3
