A researcher studying the nutritional value of a new candy places a 3.20-gram sample of the candy inside a bomb calorimeter and combusts it in excess oxygen. The observed temperature increase is 2.16 °C. If the heat capacity of the calorimeter is 42.30 kJ·K–1, how many nutritional Calories are there per gram of the candy?

At constant volume, the heat of combustion of a particular compound is –3278.0 kJ/mol. When 1.861 g of this compound (molar mass = 167.94 g/mol) was burned in a bomb calorimeter, the temperature of the calorimeter (including its contents) rose by 8.109 °C. What is the heat capacity (calorimeter constant) of the calorimeter?
