A student wants to determine the energy content of a piece of chicken. She takes a 2.5-gram sample and places it into a Bomb calorimeter. A bomb calorimeter doesn’t use water but the calorimeter itself changes temperature with the process. The calorimeter has a heat capacity of 750 J/°C. The chicken is burned completely and the calorimeter raises in temperature a total of 45°C. Determine the energy content of the chicken (Calories).
