For many Arrhenius acid base reactions (e.g., NaOH HCl, or KOH HNO3) the enthalpy change is the same regardless of which acid and which base are used. Why do you think this is so

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

as far as my knowledge is concerned

HCl(g) + H2O ⇄ H3O+ (aq) + Cl– (aq)

or, more simply (and truer to the original theory):

HCl(g) ⇄ H+ (aq) + Cl– (aq) or HCl(aq)
