Trying to calculate B , very confused about it. also would like to double check my answer for A (5858J)
Mass of cashew nut before burning: 0.55g
After burning: 0.05g
Temp. increase of 200g of water: 7.0 C
A) Calculate the total energy release by the combustion of the cashew nut by using the water temp. Increase, the mass of the water and the specific heat capacity of water (4.184J)
B) Calculate the energy release program of cashew nut consumed in the reaction.
