Answer: S8(s) + 8O2(g) → 8SO2(g) ΔH = -2368 kJ a.
E = mct
Energy = (mass) x (specific heat capacity of water) x (change in temp)
585.24 = 53.2 x 4.2 x (X-24.15)
585.24 divided by 53.2 divided by 4.2 = X - 24.15
2.62 = X - 24.15
X= 26.77degrees C
(Specific heat capacity for water is 4.2 but is different for other liquids)

Answer: Empirical formula is 
Explanation: We are given the masses of elements present in a sample of compound. To evaluate empirical formula, we will be following some steps.
<u>Step 1 :</u> Converting each of the given masses into their moles by dividing them by Molar masses.

Molar mass of Carbon = 12.0 g/mol
Molar mass of Hydrogen = 1.0 g/mol
Molar mass of Oxygen = 16.0 g/mol
Moles of Carbon = 
Moles of Hydrogen = 
Moles of Oxygen = 
<u>Step 2: </u>Dividing each mole value by the smallest number of moles calculated above and rounding it off to the nearest whole number value
Smallest number of moles = 13.76 moles



<u>Step 3:</u> Now, the moles ratio of the elements are represented by the subscripts in the empirical formula
Empirical formula becomes =
