Calculate the heat released by the reaction, qᵣₓₙ: If all the heat released by the reaction was absorbed by the solution then the value of qᵣₓₙ and qₛₒₗᵤₜᵢₒₙ will be the same but the sign will be opposite. A positive value for q means heat was absorbed (an endothermic process) and a negative value for q means heat was released (an exothermic process).
qᵣₓₙ and qₛₒₗᵤₜᵢₒₙ
What is the value of qᵣₓₙ if the qₛₒₗᵤₜᵢₒₙ = 332 cal?
a. 100 cal
b. -100 cal
c. 332 cal
d. -332 cal
