You place 40.6 ml of 0.659 M NaOH in a coffee- cup calorimeter at 25.00°C and add 71.3 ml of 0.659 M HCl, also at 25.00°C. After stirring, the final temperature is 28.57°C. [Assume the total volume is the sum of the individual volumes and that the final solution has the same density (1.00 g/ml) and specific heat capacity (4.184 J/gK)]. Calculate the change in enthalpy (LaTeX: \DeltaΔH) of the reaction in kJ/mol of water formed. Enter to 1 decimal place.

Answer:

ΔH of reaction is 62,3 kJ/mol

Explanation:

For the reaction:

HCl + NaOH → H₂O + NaCl

The heat transfer in the reaction (q) =

q = Specific heat × mass × ΔT

The mass is 40,6 mL + 71,3 mL × (1g/mL) = 111,9 g

And ΔT is 28,57 - 25,00 = 3,57°C

q = 4,184 J/gK × 111,9 g × 3,57°C = 1671 J

The moles of NaOH are:

0,0406 L×0,659 M = 0,0268 moles

And the moles of HCl are:

0,0713 L ×0,659 M = 0,0470 moles

The moles of reaction are the moles of NaOH because are the limiting reactant. 0,0268 moles

ΔH of reaction is q/moles of reaction. Thus:

ΔH of reaction =  1671J/0,0268 moles = 62350 J/mol ≡ 62,3 kJ/mol

I hope it helps!

The change in enthalpy for the reaction of formation of water is 62.367 kJ/mol.

The reaction of HCl and NaOH is given as:

[tex]\rm HCl+NaOH\to\;H_2O+NaCl[/tex]

The equal moles of HCl and NaOH are requires for the reaction.

Computation for the change in enthalpy of the reaction

The change in enthalpy ([tex]\Delta H[/tex]) for the reaction is given by:

[tex]\Delta H=\rm \dfrac{mass\;\times\;specific\;heat\;\times\;change\;in\;temnperature}{moles}[/tex]

The moles of the limiting reactants in the equation are given as:

[tex]\rm Moles=Molarity\;\times\;Volume[/tex]

  • The moles of HCl are:

[tex]\rm Moles\;HCl=0.0406\;\times\;0.659\\Moles\;HCl=0.0470\;mol[/tex]

  • The moles of NaOH in the solution are:

[tex]\rm Moles\;NaOH=0.0713\;\times\;0.659\\Moles\;NaOH=0.0268\;mol[/tex]

The moles of NaOH are less, thus, it is the limiting reactant

The mass of the reaction mixture is given as:

[tex]\rm Mass=Volume\;\times\;Density[/tex]

Substituting the values for the mass:

[tex]\rm Mass=Volume\;HCl+Volume\;NaOH\;\times\;density\\Mass=71.3\;+\;40.6\;\times\;1\;g\\Mass=111.9\;g[/tex]

The value of specific heat for the reaction is 4.184 J/gK

The change in the temperature is given as:

[tex]\rm Change\;in\;temperature=Final \;temperature- Initial\;temperature\\ Change\;in\;temperature=28.57-25^\circ C\\ Change\;in\;temperature=3.57^\circ C[/tex]

Substituting the values for the change in enthalpy:

[tex]\rm \Delta \textit H=\dfrac{111.9\;\times\;4.184\;\times\;3.57}{0.0268} J/mol\\\Delta \textit H=62367 J/mol\\\Delta \textit H=62.367\;kJ/mol[/tex]

The change in enthalpy for the reaction of formation of water is 62.367 kJ/mol.
