If 0.850 g of glucose are burned in a bomb calorimeter

If 0.850 g of glucose are burned in a bomb calorimeter, the temperature of the 700. g of water in the calorimeter increases from 15.30 °C to 19.00 °C. If the heat capacity of the calorimeter is 660 J/°C what is the value of q for the combustion of the glucose sample? Use Cwater = 4.184J/g °C Report your answer using three significant figures.
