Insoluble PbBr 2 (s) precipitates when solutions of Pb(NO 3 ) 2 (aq) and NaBr(aq) are mixed.

Question:

Insoluble PbBr2(s) precipitates when solutions of Pb(NO3)2(aq) and NaBr(aq) are mixed.Pb(NO3)2(aq) + 2 NaBr(aq) PbBr(s) + 2 NaNO3(aq) A,H = ?

To measure the enthalpy change, 200. mL of 0.75 M Pb(NO3)2(aq) and 200. mL of 1.5 M NaBr(aq) are mixed in a coffee-cup calorimeter. The temperature of the mixture rises by 2.44°C. Calculate the enthalpy change for the precipitation of PbBr2(s), in kJ/mol. (Assume the density of the solution is 1.0 g/mL, and its specific heat capacity is 4.2 J/g ∙ K.)
