Question
A 10.0 g solution of 0.05000 M aqueous NaOH was neutralized in a
foam cup calorimeter with 10.0 g of aqueous 0.05000 M HCI. The
initial temperature of the NaOH solution was 23.257 ° C. The final
temperature of the neutralized solution was 25. 178 °C. The molar
heat capacity of the foam cup and solutions, C, is 105.8 J/(mol · °C).
A. Calculate the enthalpy of neutralization for this reaction.
B. Is this reaction endothermic or exothermic?

Expert Solution
Step 1

Given:

Mass of NaOH = 10.0 g

Concentration of NaOH=0.0500 M

Mass of HCl = 10.0 g

Concentration of HCl=0.0500 M

Initial temperature of NaOH= 23.257oC

Final temperature of NaOH= 25.178oC

Molar heat capacity of foam cup ans solutions =105.8 J/goC
