Question
8.96 g of MgSO₄ is placed into 100.0 mL of water. The water's temperature increases by 6.70°C. Calculate ∆H, in kJ/mol, for the dissolution of MgSO₄. (The specific heat of water is 4.184 J/g・°C and the density of the water is 1.00 g/mL). You can assume that the specific heat of the solution is the same as that of water.
