Question: A 0 . 1 7 2 g sample of solid NH 4 ClO 4 ( s ) is dissolved in 1 5 2 mL of

A 0.172 g sample of solid NH4ClO4(s) is dissolved in 152 mL of water in a coffee cup calorimeter. Once all of the NH4ClO4(s) is dissolved in the water, the final temperature of the solution is found to be 17.54\deg C. If the initial temperature of the water in the calorimeter was 24.14\deg C, calculate the calorimeter constant (in J/K) for the coffee cup calorimeter.
Report your answer to three significant figures.
The heat of solvation of NH4ClO4(s) is 33.47 kJ/mol.
