Does the value MC(△T)/m give the enthalpy change or the total energy change?

heat at const pressure should be dH, right, BUT here we are doing heat at const V :) but click on that link for details :D for a reaction, we calc dH, the bomb itself that gives you dU

Ah I see. So it gives energy change. (CvdT)

this C is of the calorimeter dT is change in temp of water you equate this to qp or dH of the combustion reaction.
