Isooctane, C8H18, a component of gasoline, gives off 24.06 kJ of heat when 0.500 g are burned. A 100.0-mg sample of isooctane is burned in a bomb calorimeter (heat capacity = 3085 J/°C) that contains 500.0 g of water. Both the bomb and water are at 23.6°C before the reaction. What is the final temperature of the bomb and water?
