Question
A generic solid, X, has a molar mass of 78.7 g/mol. In a constant-pressure calorimeter, 21.2 g of X is dissolved in 299 g of water
at 23.00 °C.
X(s) – X(aq)
The temperature of the resulting solution rises to 26.70 °C. Assume the solution has the same specific heat as water, 4.184
J/(g. C), and that there is negligible heat loss to the surroundings.
How much heat was absorbed by the solution?
kJ
What is the enthalpy of the reaction?
AH =
kJ/mol
