A chemist carefully measures the amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of a 1.39 kg sample of C4H₂O from -8.1 °C to 11.7 °C. The experiment shows that 4.58 × 104 J of heat are needed. What can the chemist report for the molar heat capacity of CHO? Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.
