Question Parameter(s):

When 50.0 mL of water containing 0.50 mol HCl at 22.5°C

mixed with 50.0 mL of water containing 0.50 mol NaOH at 22.5°C

the temperature of the solution increases to 26.0°C.

Generally, the equation for the Chemical Reaction   is mathematically given as

Hp=H_{H_2O} +H_{rxn}

Therefore,Heat of water

H_{H_2O}=[(50.0mL+50mL)*4.18*(26.0-22.5)

H_{H_2O}=146.3J

H_{H_2O}=0.1463kJ

In conclusion, Hp

Hp=-(0.1463+28.36)

Hp=-28.5kJ
