Question: A 10.0 mole% aqueous sulfuric acid solution (SG = 1.27) is to be titrated to neutrality at 25C with a 3.00-molar caustic soda (sodium hydroxide)

A 10.0 mole% aqueous sulfuric acid solution (SG = 1.27) is to be titrated to neutrality at 25°C with a 3.00-molar caustic soda (sodium hydroxide) solution (SG = 1.13): H2SO4 (aq) + 2 NaOH (aq) Na2SO4 (aq) + 2 H2O (l)

(a) Calculate the required volume ratio (cm3 caustic solution lcm3 acid solution).

(b) Calculate the standard heats of formation (kJ/mol solute) of each of the three solutions involved in this process and the heat released (kJ/crn3 acid solution neutralized) if the reactants and products are all at 25°C. The heat of solution of sodium sulfate is – 1.17 kJ/mol. Assume that Q = ΔH for the process.
