It is desired to determine the acid-base neutralization heat using a calorimeter. For this, 20mL of 2 M NaOH solution with a temperature of 18C is placed in the calorimeter. 20 mL of 2M HCl solution with a temperature of 19.2C is taken in a dry and clean beaker, and the HCl in the beaker is poured into the calorimeter at once and the lid of the calorimeter is closed. The equilibrium temperature reached is determined as 30.4C. a) Since the calorimeter is 14.12 J/C, write the reaction and find the neutralization enthalpy. b) Find the molar enthalpy of neutralization (The density of the solutions will be considered as 1 g/mL. Cwater =4.18 J/gC )
