A 250-g calorimeter with a specific heat capacity of 20.0 J/g · °C contains 600 g of water (c = 4.18 J/g · °C). Given that the molar heat of combustion of sucrose, C12H22O11, releases 5.65 × 103 kJ of heat, what mass of sucrose must be burned to increase the temperature of the water and calorimeter by 10°C?
