I made the mistake of using wrong mass in p34 cuz it was tough and my mind stopped workingA student mixed 25.0cm3 of 4.00 moldm–3 hydrochloric acid with an equal volume of 4.00moldm–3 sodium hydroxide. The initial temperature of both solutions was 15.0°C. The maximum temperature recorded was 30.0°C.
Using these results, what is the enthalpy change of neutralisation of hydrochloric acid?
A –62.7kJ mol–1 B –31.4kJ mol–1 C –15.7kJ mol–1 D –3.14kJ mol–1
How do I solve this????
Im using Q = mc T
= (18*0.1)(4.2)(15)
the Q/(1000*0.1)
What am I doing wrong answer is B.
the mass in this in 25cm3 of each.. so 50cm3 total. Put in formula and you get the correct answer...Remember that the mass used is always of the liquid..
