Question

When 25 mL of 1.0M H₂SO4 is added to 50 mL of 1.0 M NaOH at 25°C in a calorimeter,

the temperature of the aqueous solution increases to 33.9 °C. Assuming that the specific
heat of the solution is 4.18 J/g°C, that its density is 1.00/mL, and that the calorimeter
itself absorbs a negligible amount of heat, calculate the amount of heat absorbed for the
reaction.

Answer 1

Answer: The amount of heat absorbed for the reaction of 25 mL of 1.0 M H₂SO4 and 50 mL of 1.0 M NaOH, resulting in a temperature increase from 25°C to 33.9°C, is 10.14 kJ.
