In a constant volume calorimeter,$3.5 \ g$ of a gas with molecular weight $28$ was burnt in excess oxygen at $298.0 \ K$. The temperature of the calorimeter was found to increase from $298.0 \ K$ to $298.45 \ K$ due to the combustion process. Given that the heat capacity of the calorimeter is $2.5 \ kJ \ K^{-1}$,the numerical value for the enthalpy of combustion of the gas in $kJ \ mol^{-1}$ is

  • A
    $9$
  • B
    $4$
  • C
    $5$
  • D
    $6$
